The man in charge of the editorial department of the Weston Mercury is set to hold a Meet the Editor session.

Tim Lethaby has been editor of the newspaper and website of the Weston Mercury since October, and he is asking readers new and old to come and chat with him about coverage.

Being held on Friday July 21 from 12.30pm to 1.30pm, the Meet the Editor session will take place at the Loves Cafe, in West Street, Weston-super-Mare.

Tim said: "I have loved my first 10 months as editor of the Mercury, and I feel I am now in a position to model the paper and website on the type of positive, community news I champion.

"But this is your newspaper and website, the people of Weston-super-Mare and the surrounding villages, and I want to know what is important to you.

"Please pop down to Loves for a coffee and a chat, to let me know what you like most about our news, what you would like more of, or just let me know about a story you would like us to cover."
