As well as promoting local businesses and events it will provide an excellent balance of community news and general interest content. Be local. Buy local.

A monthly community magazine aims to provide a platform for local businesses, charities and groups throughout
the Wyre Forest to promote services/events and to become a trustworthy source of information and news that residents can rely on. The magazine aims to provide a platform for local businesses, charities and groups throughout Kidderminster, Stourport & Bewdley to promote their services/events and to become a trustworthy source of information and news that the residents can rely on. There is a thriving community that exists in Kidderminster, Stourport & Bewdley and surrounding areas but residents often comment that they are unaware of news and local events that are happening or the local businesses as they are often overshadowed by the national chains. With the difficult financial times the economy has faced recently, it is more important than ever to support the small businesses, charities and groups that are the heart of the local community. In addition to up to date news and events this will also include regular features such as what’s on guide, health & wellbeing, council news, home and garden, food and drink, reader views, artists and much more. Support local business and the community.

💚 We love this kitchen transformation! From dark wood cabinet doors to beautiful sage green 🌿

The natural blocked oak laminate worktop adds warmth and complements the existing wood flooring perfectly, while the cream metro tiles create a timeless finish. The emerald metallic splashback behind the hob adds a gorgeous pop of colour and a touch of luxury. ✨

A perfect blend of natural warmth, timeless style and modern elegance!
