About The Magazine
The Chichester Magazine was created with one clear goal — to give Chichester and its surrounding areas a publication that genuinely represents the community. We saw a gap for a magazine that didn’t just advertise businesses, but connected people, supported independents, and celebrated the character of the district.We started the magazine because local businesses deserve a platform that is affordable, effective, and built with care. Many small companies struggle to reach households consistently, so we wanted to create a publication that delivers real visibility every month while keeping advertising costs accessible.At the same time, residents deserve a magazine that feels personal — something that highlights local stories, showcases events, and brings together everything happening across the area in one trusted place. The Chichester Magazine was built to be that link: a modern, community‑driven publication that strengthens connections and supports the people who make this city special.Our mission remains simple: to champion local businesses, deliver valuable content to households, and build a magazine that truly belongs to Chichester.
Meet The Team
Ashley - Director
I’m Ashley Hadley, Director of The Chichester Magazine and Co‑Director of The Portsmouth Magazine. I’ve always had a passion for creating modern, community‑focused publications that genuinely support local businesses and give readers something valuable every month.
I run every part of the magazine process — from planning content and designing layouts to managing advertisers, building new ideas, and making sure each issue feels fresh, local, and worth reading. I care about producing high‑quality work, keeping things organised, and making our magazines accessible and affordable for the businesses who rely on us.
Alongside the magazines, I also build directory listings, manage social media posting plans, and develop new services that help local companies grow their visibility. Everything I do is centred around supporting the community, creating clean, premium designs, and delivering real results for the people and businesses we work with.
Victoria - Editor
Hi, I’m Victoria, Editor at The Chichester Magazine. I’ve always loved stories, community voices, and the little details that make Chichester such a special place to live. My role is all about shaping each issue with care — choosing the right features, polishing articles, and making sure every page feels genuine, engaging, and true to our city.
I’m also a huge dog lover, so when I’m not editing, you’ll usually find me out exploring Chichester’s parks, beaches, and walking trails with my dog. This city has a charm that never gets old, and I love bringing that feeling into the magazine every month.
Being part of The Chichester Magazine means celebrating the area I care about, supporting local businesses, and helping create a publication that feels warm, welcoming, and rooted in the community.
Jennifer - Social Creator
Hi, I’m Jennifer, and I’ve recently joined The Chichester Magazine. I look after all of our social content across Facebook and Instagram, keeping locals up to date with what’s happening in and around Chichester. I love sharing community news, events, business updates, and everything that makes this area such a great place to live.
Chichester is a place I’ve always loved — from its beautiful walks to its friendly atmosphere. I’m a massive animal lover, and when I’m not working on social content, you’ll usually find me out exploring with my dog. I also enjoy discovering new cafés and restaurants, trying new spots, and supporting the amazing independents we have here.
Being part of The Chichester Magazine means helping connect the community every day, and I’m excited to bring fresh, engaging content to our readers each month.
