Henfield with Shermanbury and Woodmancote Parish Magazine.
Another way to stay in touch with what is happening in our churches, and our villages, is to subscribe to our parish magazine, which has been published since 1887. Through a dedicated team of volunteers, it is produced for, and distributed to, residents of all the villages in the parish.
The magazine continues to be produced monthly with a cover price of 80p. (2023 price) Most are purchased by an annual subscription and home delivered through a network of distributors, each having responsibility for a road or area. It is also sold by various shops in and around Henfield, including Knights Budgens supermarket, as well as in the Parish Council office.
The magazine has a good balance between editorial and advertising, and carries regular reports and news from St Peter’s CE School, Henfield’s local historian, the Sussex Wildlife Trust, village organisations, clubs, local charities and topical ethical issues and other general community news are also included when space permits. There is also information and contributions from the other churches in Henfield (The Evangelical Free Church and Corpus Christi Catholic Church) too .
In June 2019 the magazine won the category for layout and design at the National Church Magazine awards in London, a wonderful follow up to the 2014 award for ‘Appeal to a Wider Community’ so it can now justifiably claim to be one of the best church magazines in Britain!
