Changes to Durham County News magazine
Tell us what you think about changes to the way we share the Durham County News magazine with you.
Background
The changes to Durham County News come after mounting pressures on our budget, which were consulted on as part of our Medium Term Financial Plan which was approved by full council in February 2024.
What is happening
The summer 2024 edition, delivered from 6 May 2024, will be the last printed version of the magazine produced and delivered to households this year.
The remaining issues will be available to read as digital magazines online, with a limited number of printed copies delivered to our libraries, leisure centres and other venues across the county for people who cannot access the internet. We will also continue to provide the magazine in alternative formats for blind and visually impaired people.
These arrangements will continue in 2025, with just the summer edition delivered to households as a printed magazine.
We appreciate that many people look forward to receiving their printed copies of Durham County News and hope you will continue to enjoy our news and features online, or at one of our venues. We would like to hear your thoughts and suggestions about the new arrangements.
