The ever popular Dorset Coast & Countryside Magazine is out now, sporting a fresh new look. With a stylish new design and the addition of a pocket sized, pull-out events guide, it is already proving to be well-liked with locals and visitors.

As well as a new look for this magazine, it's print run has also been increased from just twice yearly to three times a year, to keep up with public demand and to ensure the events and articles as up to date as possible. This current edition runs from 1^st May - 31^st August and is bursting at the seams with all the latest news and goings-on from around the county.

All the articles featured are written by local experts who have a true passion for Dorset and who work at safeguarding our unique coast and countryside for future generations.

Kirstie Snow, Promotions Officer says

"This magazine is jam-packed full of ideas of what you can do, where to go and what to see from now until August. The handy 24 page pull-out events guide contains a snapshot of the hundreds of guided walks and events that are being run between now and September and the events that we couldn't squeeze into the guide can be found on the website www.dorsetaonb.org.uk
