Slimming World Magazine sees strong print growth in 2022
Slimming World Magazine is celebrating after recent ABC (Audit Bureau of Circulations) figures revealed the title saw strong growth in its circulation during 2022. The magazine has now grown its print circulation 10% year on year to 305,616.
Now the highest actively purchased magazine in the women’s interest sector, Slimming World Magazine is sold on newsstands as well as in Slimming World’s community weight loss groups
Editor Sara Ward says that she is proud to see the magazine make strides, especially in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. She says: “The industry as a whole has had a really tough time over the past few years. We’ve had to work through various restrictions and throughout have always remained committed to creating a brilliant quality magazine that helps support our readers to achieve their weight loss goals.
“This growth shows that our readers love the magazine just as much as we do. We put them at the heart of everything we do – from sourcing recipes we know they’ll enjoy and that will fit perfectly into their lifestyles, to sharing their inspiring real-life stories, including on the cover. We are thrilled to see growth in 2022 and hope we can build on this success for the year ahead – during which we will also be celebrating our 25th anniversary!”
In July 2022 Slimming World Magazine also unveiled a brand-new look, with three additional sections. The new Mind, Body & Soul section was particularly well-received, as it reflects Slimming World’s unique expertise in the psychology of weight loss – including how to take control of your own mindset and become an expert in yourself.
Slimming World Magazine is sold at a discounted price in Slimming World groups. Online members can receive the magazine as part of their web or app-based support package, and it is also available to purchase on the newsstand. It is published seven times a year and produced in-house at Slimming World’s head office in Derbyshire.
The March/April 2023 issue of Slimming World Magazine is available in Slimming World groups now and on sale on newsstands. The digital edition is also available to download.
