Shrewsbury at Christmas time by Linda Edwards/Sunny Side Art

View Our Latest Edition

Our Christmas issue front cover design is by Linda Edwards from her Sunny Side Art collection featuring local places. 

This issue is a real family affair. There are three talented mum and daughter duos hiding in the pages - TV writer Jess Edwards and her artist mum Linda (of the beautiful gold leaf paintings), Meg Arrol and Winnie Bradley of textiles business Parker and Arrol and Karen Beattie and Fritha Podschies of the new Two Fat Dogs leather goods workshop in Grope Lane. And then there’s mum and son artists Kit and Fergus Byron who’ll be exhibiting together at Winter Open Studios. 

You’ll get to meet Shrewsbury Sarah, the enthusiastic Shrewsbury influencer, collaborating with My Shrewsbury magazine to promote everything great about our town! 

We also talk to Lawrence Plant, the horn player from the Shrewsbury Symphony Orchestra who has a double life as a frontman for Showaddywaddy (coming to The Buttermarket on December 22 as part of their 50th anniversary tour). 

We’ve a cracking tale from Richard Tisdale for ‘News From the Past’ (best yet!), plus recipes from wonderful Anna Christoforou, wines from Iron & Rose, photography from Shropshire and Beyond and much much more!

What People Say

My Shrewsbury Magazine celebrates everything that is so wonderful about Shrewsbury and Shropshire, from its residents and community groups to its shops, restaurants, businesses, schools and beautiful landscapes.   It really is the best place to keep up with everything that is going on in our creative, forward thinking and dynamic town!

Joanna Jepson

Director of Marketing & Communications, Shrewsbury High School 

I have loved My Shrewsbury ever since its inception. Every copy of this magazine fills me with new ideas and plenty of inspiration to discover so many interesting things and hidden treasures of our hometown I have missed or didn’t know. It is such a fantastic project and I wish the editor and all her helpers good luck with the launch of a digital version. I would also like to pass on my thanks to the editor for all her hard work especially during the very difficult Pandemic with this pernicious virus.

Margrit Turpin

We've been part of My Shrewsbury’s journey since its inception; the magazine just gets better and better.  The cover is always eye-catching and the content engaging.  It’s incredibly popular with our customers – the magazine just flies out…!  Katy and her team are very generous with their coverage of the market and we’re delighted to continue to support this wonderful publication.

Kate Gittins
