United Publishing Group was established in 1927 and produced official publications for over 1000 local authorities throughout mainland Britain and Northern Ireland.

In 1988, Local Authority Publishing Co. Ltd was formed by former management of the United Publishing Group. Between them, the new management team had in excess of 70 years' experience.

Local Authority Publishing quickly established an excellent reputation with local authorities and advertisers for producing high quality publications.

Since 1988 the Company has continued to expand and has recently purchased its own freehold office building, where it continues to provide a first class service for its local authority clients.

The Company is owned and managed by Paul and Leigh Ralph and has now successfully produced official publications for more than 200 local authorities in its own right.
