Two local magazines combine
Two Chesterfield publications have united to continue to serve their local communities during the Coronavirus crisis.
A combined April 2020 edition of ‘Twist’ and ‘Wings’ is published this week, but you can read it online here.
Heron Publications produce both titles – ‘Twist’ in Chesterfield and ‘Wings’ in Wingerworth, Tupton, Ashover and Clay Cross. The company has temporarily closed its office, but has managed to put together a 36-page ‘emergency edition’ to serve its readership.
Said editor Mike Firth: “We were encouraged when a good number of local businesses told us they wanted to continue to get their messages across to local people through advertising in our publications, so we combined our two Chesterfield titles for ease of production.
“Along with important public information, this magazine also contains plenty to entertain – and even amuse – our readers.
“We have tips for activities people can to take up at home, a tale about previous school closures, a feature detailing how local folk can enrol to become life-savers, an update on Chesterfield Canal progress… and readers can learn why a former local headmistress used to remove her teeth in class!”
