The company publishes a 48 page Parish News magazine 10 times a year. The magazine contains a mix of articles covering local news, events, details of clubs and societies, quizzes and articles of general interest. It also includes advertisements for a wide variety of local service providers along with an indexed list of the local advertisers. Everything you need to know about the local area. It is distributed to local subscribers by a team of around 50 volunteers and is available for sale in local shops in Cumnor, Appleton and Botley including the Botley Library.
The company’s stakeholders are the subscribers to the magazine, advertisers and visitors to the area who purchase the magazine. The directors of the company all live within the parish and volunteer their time and expertise. We also have 50 to 60 volunteer distributors. Comments (made to the committee, whether positive or negative) by subscribers about the contents of articles are discussed at meetings and acted upon. A few stakeholders live outside the distribution area and receive postal copies (at extra cost). Due to rising costs this year we consulted with the postal stakeholders to offer them a PDF copy at the same cost of a subscribed copy rather than pay the increased postage costs. For some this was acceptable, others preferred to pay the increased costs. An AGM was held on October 2nd 2026 to consult with stakeholders. The 2025/2026 accounts were approved at this meeting by the directors and stakeholders.
