What a wonderful evening we had last night at the
Uckfield Business Awards 2026 as sponsors of the Best Place to Eat and Meet Award!

A huge congratulations to The Highlands Inn, Uckfield, the winner of our category! However we must stress what a brilliant set of entrants and finalists we had the pleasure of meeting, interviewing and being generously hosted by. It was an incredibly difficult decision to narrow it down to just three, let alone pick just one winner from such a brilliant group!

It was an honour to be involved and have the privilege of judging a category. The unbelievably high standard of entrants is evidence of the incredible business community that is the pride of Uckfield!

01/10/2026

As proud sponsors of the Best Place to Eat & Meet category at the Uckfield Business Awards 2026 , we're delighted that the entire MCL team will be attending this evening's celebrations to support and recognise the fantastic businesses that make our community thrive.

As a result, MCL will be opening later than usual at 10:00am tomorrow, Friday 2nd October.

Should you experience an emergency before then, please call our main office number and you will be directed through to our out-of-hours support team, who will be available to assist you.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding while we take the opportunity to celebrate the achievements of our local business community.

Good luck to all the finalists tonight! 🎉✨

iPhone Fold rumours are heating up in anticipation to Apple's annual tech showcase… 👀📱

The rumours suggest a premium price tag potentially north of $2,000, alongside one of the biggest challenges in foldable tech: a virtually crease-free display. Add in a larger inner screen and Apple's usual focus on premium hardware, and this could be a seriously different kind of iPhone.

Of course, until Apple takes to the stage, it’s all still speculation… but if the rumours are right, the big question might not be what can it do, it might be is it worth the price? 👀

Would you buy the iPhone Fold?
