About the Wallingford Wellbeing Magazine
The Wallingford Wellbeing Magazine is a quarterly, digital publication created to support community health and wellbeing throughout the year.
Launching on 22nd January, the magazine is rooted in a simple belief: that meaningful wellbeing support shouldn’t be limited to events, trends or moments in time. Instead, it should be accessible, relevant and woven into everyday life - supporting people where they are, right now.
While the Wallingford Wellbeing Festival is one important expression of this work, the magazine exists in its own right as a platform for ongoing learning, reflection, connection and shared insight.
What the Magazine Is About
The magazine offers thoughtful, practical and accessible content focused on wellbeing as it’s actually lived.
Each quarterly edition explores themes including:
- Everyday wellbeing and prevention
- Physical, emotional, social and financial health
- Health literacy and evidence-led insight made accessible
- Creativity, culture and expression
- Nature, place and sustainability
- Community stories and lived experience
The intention is not to overwhelm or prescribe, but to inform, inspire and support, helping readers make sense of their health, their lives and the world around them.
A Platform for Community Storytelling
The Wallingford Wellbeing Magazine also provides a space to share the voices, values and work of those contributing to wellbeing locally and regionally.
It features:
- Community initiatives and grassroots projects
- Charities, organisations and practitioners doing meaningful work
- Conversations that bridge ancient wisdom and modern science
- Stories that reflect the diversity of real lives and experiences
In this way, the magazine helps strengthen connection, understanding and shared responsibility for wellbeing across the community.
Digital-First, Accessible by Design
The magazine is free to access digitally, ensuring wide reach, inclusivity and ease of access.
A limited print edition will be produced for the festival quarter only, available at cost. This print version offers a tangible snapshot of the festival and the wider wellbeing ecosystem it sits within, with priority editorial features and visibility given to festival sponsors and partners whose work aligns closely with our values something to pick up, keep and return to.
Contributing to the Magazine
We welcome contributors whose work aligns with the magazine’s values and ethos.
Contributions may include:
- Articles and opinion pieces
- Practical wellbeing guidance
- Community stories and case studies
- Interviews and conversations
- Creative writing or visual content
All content is curated with care. The aim is to inform, support and inspire - not simply to promote, persuade or sell through contributions.
Advertising in the Magazine
Advertising in the Wallingford Wellbeing Magazine offers a meaningful way to connect with an engaged local and regional audience.
This is not a high-volume or click-driven publication. Advertising sits alongside carefully curated editorial that readers actively choose to engage with, share and return to.
Advertising may suit:
- Health, wellbeing and preventative care services
- Complementary, clinical and allied health practitioners
- Community organisations, charities and social enterprises
- Ethical brands and purpose-led businesses
- Local independents and regional organisations
- Education, training and lifelong learning providers
- Arts, culture and creative initiatives
- Environmental, sustainability and nature-focused organisations
- Food, nutrition and lifestyle brands rooted in quality and care
- Workplace wellbeing, leadership and people-development services
- Financial guidance, planning and support services
- Family, parenting, youth and intergenerational initiatives
- Retreats, experiences and services that support living well
Advertising is particularly well suited to organisations that care not just about what they offer, but how they show up in the world.
Opportunities include:
- Digital advertising across quarterly editions
- Editorial-style placements (clearly marked)
- Festival-quarter print advertising (limited run, at cost)
Advertising is designed to feel aligned, relevant and respectful - part of the wider conversation, not a distraction from it.
A Shared Commitment
At its heart, the Wallingford Wellbeing Magazine is about supporting healthier, more connected communities - now and into the future.
It exists to complement the festival, extend its values year-round, and offer another meaningful way to educate, inspire and support wellbeing at a community level.
