It has the largest and most diverse and socially conscious subscriber list in Scotland - over 23,000 subscribers. Subscribers often forward news, events and jobs to their service users by email, print outs, on noticeboards and by word of mouth.

QuickMail is ideal if you want to advertise jobs, news or services. Job adverts and paid events cost £230 each zero VAT(free to members) while news and events listings are free up to a maximum of 100 words. All profits from QuickMail go towards our humanitarian work.
