If you have any news that you would like to see in the paper, please call me on 07822862587 or email me

Carl Gavaghan: I joined the Herald in June 2010 after working for newspapers in North Yorkshire. I cover Chertsey and New Haw and am interested to hear any good rumours or stories over a drink. If it's a good one I'll even buy the round. Call me on 07795645371 or email me

Becky Middleton: I joined the Herald after an enjoyable stint as a freelance journalist, specialising in investigative features and travel writing. I was fortunate enough to be sent to South Africa for the 2010 World Cup, and am returning to my roots by getting stuck into the local news scene. I am the reporter for Sunbury and Shepperton. Email me or call 01932 561111.

Jack Maidment: I am the Surrey Herald reporter for Addlestone and am looking forward to getting to know the town and its people better. I studied Journalism at Cardiff University and developed a passion for news and sport reporting.

Russell Butt: I joined the team in May 2008 after ditching a job in software sales. Initially I covered Staines & Ashford, but have since been getting to know the great people of Runnymede and mixing with communities in Englefield Green, Thorpe and Virginia Water. If you have some news you think I would be interested in, email me or call 01932 561111.

Chris Caulfield: I have been a journalist since 2006 before joining the newsroom in August 2011 in what is now my second stint covering the Spelthorne. I am looking forward to tackling the issues that affect you. I have worked on papers in Hounslow, Richmond and Guildford.
