The Arle Valley Voice 

Please click here to read the December 2024 edition.

This colourful monthly magazine (11 issues with July/August combined) circulates in New Alresford, Old Alresford, Bighton and Ovington parishes in the Arle Valley Benefice. It has a circulation of about 400 copies a month. 

Copies are distributed throughout the community including estate agents, schools, the surgery and the library. The magazine has a large loyal following of regular readers who buy an annual subscription (£15). We also do our best to ensure that all newcomers to Alresford are given a free copy. We are always trying to increase our readership.

The Arle Valley Voice is sold at £1.60 a month in all the Benefice churches and from the Six West Newsagents in Alresford.  

Please contact Caroline Hawkins on 01962 732964 for more subscription information.
