We aim to include news which is relevant to everyone in Sampford Peverell and Uplowman as well as to publish notices of local activities and events.

News Articles and Notices
We rely on local people to provide us with information, news articles and notices and to present this to us in an interesting and readable form.
If you see something newsworthy, out of the ordinary, have a point of view or life story you are willing to share, then put this into writing and send to us. We encourage and welcome news articles which are short, topical and readable – and if you can provide a picture, all the better.

News MUST reach us by no later than 19th of the preceding month.

Magazine Who's Who and Who Does What
The magazine is run by a team of volunteers who can be contacted via the magazine email [email protected] or by telephone (below). Emails are monitored by the editors and will be answered as promptly as possible. We all either work or are retired with other interests and responsibilities, so bear with us if we don’t get back to you as quickly as you would like.
We are always on the look-out for new blood and fresh ideas to keep improving the magazine. If you are interested in being involved in any way, please talk to any of us, we'd love to meet you. No experience necessary (none of us started with any!)

Cover graphics
During the last twelve months imagery for the front cover has been produced by a range of local artists in a variety of mediums. The majority have been from members of Tiverton Art Society. More can be found online at www.tivertonartsociety.co.uk if you are interested in becoming a member or finding out more about the range of classes, demonstrations and workshops that they offer.
Others have been from the Sampford Peverell Art group which meets in the Methodist Chapel each Tuesday.
We also run a yearly children’s competition and part of the prize is their image is used on one month's front cover.
