living magazines cardiff

Since we launched our very first issue of our Living Magazines in 2007, we have aimed to bring you the latest news from your local area in the best way possible.

Over the last few months, we’ve been thinking of ways to improve the delivery of news to you the reader. And we’ve come to the conclusion that the best news comes directly from you- the residents of our local areas.

So we’re coming up with an idea that lets YOU keep your local area up-to-speed with the latest goings on – whether it’s a planning application, a new shop opening, or even a local club that needs some more members.

You’ll be able to sign up and create your own ‘profile’ or username. You can then add as little or as much as you like- all we ask is that it’s relevant to the area that you are writing for. So we’re looking for writers, bloggers, photographers – anyone who wants to keep their neighbours up-to-date with the latest news.

This, of course, is still work in progress at the moment. We will be launching a pilot version of the website in the New Year, once we’ve worked out how it’ll all work. At present, we’re taking names and emails of people who would like to be part of this new and exciting project. Our current advertisers will benefit from some free advertising too as we will be linking in local services to the site, both to help them, and to alert you to any special offers in your local area.

We are aiming to then launch this across the whole of Cardiff, to tie in with the relaunch of one of Cardiff’s most popular websites – ILoveCF.com, as modelled (above) by the lovely Eve Myles. This site was originally launched in 2007 and is being lovingly restored at present.

If you’d like to be on board, email your name and details of what you can bring to the project to editor@livingmags.co.uk. We’ll keep you posted of developments by email as we progress.

We look forward to hearing from you.
