Testimonials

We love to hear your success stories in feedback. If you've advertised with us and want to let everyone know how its been since, drop me an email and we'll add it to the lovely words we already have from local businesses, charities and individuals.

We opened our doors in September 2021 and as we had no connection with the local community, we started advertising in the Runnymede Magazines. We have not looked back. After a year, more than 30% of our business comes through the Runnymede & Weybridge publications. They are such trusted and engaging ways to communicate with residents and we very much enjoy working with Mary and her team.

Recently we had an enquiry which turned into a move in. Our new Resident's daughter in law was just about to sign up with another home when she picked up the magazine on the day it dropped through her door and saw our advert, she came in the same day to view and the rest is history.

Lesley Loizou Regional Client Liaison Lead

I first came across Runnymede Life magazine as a great way for a new business to network in the local area . I then decided to become a customer and I have to say that the response I have received has made it one of the most cost effective ways of marketing I have used to date. Mary who manages and edits the magazine has been both helpful and flexible in her approach - this has been greatly appreciated and will only help our ongoing business relationship.

The article in the July edition has been very successful. We got some attention at the fair but things moved very well after the magazine was distributed. Our taster sessions are full and it looks like our beginners course in September will be full too. Thank you for your help. It looks like we will now survive the post-COVID lockdown period!

Mary Hammond is a buzzing local journalist who has done great good for the Runnymede community she serves. Runnymede life is packed full of local news and information. It's a community boosting publication that has high regard among local people. Mary is always looking to support local good community causes.

I just wanted to drop you an email to say how much I enjoy the Runnymede Life magazine when it arrives. I'm in my 30's and regularly use social media to find out about local events, but it is really nice to have an alternative to this, where it's all in one place, with some local history thrown in too and doesn't involve screen time!

Gemma Reader

I really enjoy the Weybridge & Brooklands Magazine. It has information that matters to the local community of Weybridge and the surrounding areas. When we receive it, I look at a few of the headline articles and make sure that I check out the events section. Really comprehensive and there's nothing like it.

Mary Hammond

Having spent 20 years in marketing in a global world, it is so nice to work locally. Living in the area and a being a lover of the River Thames, I appreciate being part of a community. The Runnymede Borough has so much to offer including easy connection to the M25, St Peter’s NHS Hospital, The Chertsey & Egham museums displaying so much of Runnymede’s history, the River Thames, and plenty of local shops and businesses.

We are pleased to be working with the local community bringing out the best of Runnymede and Weybridge, enabling residents to be more informed about what is happening around them. I truly believe Connecting with our Community is where life will be going forward and the importance of walking to the shops, making sure the area is litter free and enjoying the small things in life once again.

We intend to bring people together through our publications and hope you appreciate being part of our Community.

Our publications are distributed free and shared by over 100,000 residents. Community Life is the place to be.

Jess Contos

With a background in publishing, mostly on interiors titles and previously as commissioning editor of the Sunday Express magazine’s lifestyle section, joining Community Life magazine has been a perfect transition for me. I have lived in Walton, Weybridge and Shepperton all my life, so I’m extremely familiar with all areas of our community as well as having a passion for local history.

I’m delighted to be part of Community Life magazine and feel that I am able to contribute to the already hugely successful relationships that Mary has nurtured between businesses and residents alike. I’m hugely excited for the launch of Cobham & Esher and looking forward to creating new relationships and bringing our community life together with help from our readers and advertisers.
