Six things that make us, us

Why We Started

We saw local stories going untold. Network Magazines was created to put community first - not advertising volume.

Local Communities

We live and breathe Eastleigh, Totton and Southampton. Every page reflects the people who call it home.

Local Businesses

Independent businesses are the heartbeat of our high streets. Advertise with us to be discovered.

Local Charities

10% of advertising profits go directly to charities and community groups we believe in.

Football Partnerships

Proud supporters of Eastleigh FC, AFC Totton and Southampton FC. See our latest competitions.

Growing Together

From a single edition to 43,000 homes - growth driven by readers and advertisers who care.

A magazine built around community

Network Magazines exists because Lisa believed our towns deserved a local magazine that celebrated real people, real businesses and real causes - not just adverts. Today, that ethos shapes every page we print and every charity we support.
