The Witley Magazine
The Witley Magazine is published ten times a year by and for the people of the parish: Witley, Culmer, Brook, Enton, Sandhills and Wormley.
Each issue contains a message from Brian Shand or Ann Fraser, notices by local groups and schools, other useful local information, articles on a wide variety of topics and advance notice of future events taking place in Witley or the surrounding area, plus Church News.
Recent issues have included articles on life in Witley before WWII, the twentieth anniversary of the Great Storm, the history of Sebastopol Lane, climbing Annapurna for charity, and aspects of the interesting lives and work of residents of our villages.
Every year, usually at Easter, we try to deliver one free issue of the Magazine to each household in the parish.
If you are not already a subscriber and would like to have the Magazine delivered to your door, please call the Parish Office on 01428 681872 and give your name and address.
The first issue in the New Year will be the February one, available in early February. The annual subscription is £5 for ten issues. We are able to keep the price down, thanks to our advertisers: you will find a broad range of local services advertised in the Magazine. Single issues – on sale in the back of Church or at TE Francis – are available for 50p each.
The Magazine has a new editor: Ali Collins, whom many of you will already know as a busy and talented painter and designer and who helps lead the SmAll Saints services each month. We are delighted to welcome her as the editor of the Magazine.
If you would like to contribute an article to the Magazine, or you run a local group you want to tell the parish about, or have an event you wish to publicise, please contact Ali at the Parish Office, or by email at
