Advertising with the Clapham NCT
NCT Clapham & District branch is a powerful network of parents and parents-to-be in South West London
The Clapham & District branch of the NCT comprises over 2,000 members, made up of parents and parents-to-be living in and around the Clapham area. Our membership is mostly located in SW2, SW4, SW8, SW9, SW11 and SW12, although we do have a small number of members in SW16, SW18 and SW19.
It is without doubt a highly targeted and lucrative audience and our advertising opportunities offer local businesses valuable access to this audience.
We currently offer advertising opportunities within our magazine ‘Special Delivery’, which is distributed quarterly to over 1,100 member households, and we also offer the opportunity to advertise within a directory of local businesses on our website.
The Clapham & District branch also runs many events and activities throughout the year, for which we are happy to offer sponsorship opportunities to local businesses.
If you are interested in sponsorship or have any specific advertising requirements or ideas, then please get in touch, we’d love to hear from you: advertise@claphamnct.com
