About the Parish News Magazine

The Parish News has been produced for well over 30 years. Between 650-700 copies of the Parish News monthly magazine are distributed each month to homes within the parishes of St Mawgan-in-Pydar, St Ervan and St Eval and via the post as far afield as Crete.

Although the Parish News was founded by members of the Parish Churches, it aims to inform and entertain readers in over 40 pages with every aspect of life within the area. There are no paid staff; the production and equipment costs are covered by the annual subscriptions and advertising revenue.

The members of the team are shown below and relevant copy should be sent to the individual Sub-editor.

Deadline for copy for the printed magazine is 14th of the preceding month.

The printing is done by a willing band of volunteers each month co-ordinated by Chris Errington. If you would like to be a part of the team that edits, prints and distributes the Parish News send an email to

The Parish News team keeps a list of Diary Dates where all future events are recorded.  This is to help organisers to check in advance whether a proposed date would clash with other events.  Organisers are encouraged to consult this list and to inform Gill Lovegrove if they arrange a new event.
