COVID-19 update from Anthem – magazine suspensions and closures

In light of recent developments globally and locally of COVID-19, as a company Anthem is having to take comprehensive action to manage our brands through this crisis and come out the other side with a strong business for our customers, partners and employees for years to come.

In order to do this, we need to make some changes.

We will continue to publish Colouring Heaven, Colouring Heaven Collection, Ultimate Dot2Dot, Vegan Food & Living and Women’s Running as usual.

We are temporarily suspending the publication of some of our titles for three months and we aim to return them to the newsstand from July. The suspended titles are Baking Heaven, Gluten-Free Heaven, Planet Mindful, Italia!, Long Live Vinyl, Classic Pop and Vintage Rock.

It is with sadness that we’re announcing the closure of two of our brands – Simply Vegan and Healthy Diet. We have absolutely loved publishing these magazines and thank all of our loyal, passionate readers for their support of the titles over the last few years. We also offer our thanks to the advertisers, contributors and partners who have worked with us on them. Without you these brands wouldn’t have been the same.

With regret, we have also had to cancel our Bare Fashion event.

If you are a subscriber to any of the above magazines, we will be in touch with you very soon to update you on changes to your subscription.

If you are an advertiser or a contributor with us, unfortunately we have had to furlough a number of staff during this period, so if your regular contact is unavailable, another member of the team will be able to help you with your enquiry in due course.

We hope you will bear with us during this time and continue to support us as we in return promise to keep supporting you, whether by bringing you news and entertainment or helping to get the word out to our communities about your business. Here at Anthem we send our love to you all and hope you are keeping safe and well.
