Magazine gets a new look after a positive reaction in reader survey
E
arlier this year BLESMA surveyed
its Members to find out what they
thought about BLESMAG. More
than 500 people responded to the
survey and were mostly positive. There have
been some changes to the magazine since
the survey. It has undergone a redesign and
there is now a dedicated features section to
tell the charity’s important stories in detail.
However, the ethos and values of the
magazine remain the same. It is your
publication, designed to entertain and
inform Members, letting them know what is
going on across the charity and delivering
must-know information on a regular basis.
Here are some of the survey’s findings.
Let us know what you think of the new-look
issue by emailing us at [email protected].
Elsewhere, congratulations go to Mary Burnett,
widow of Former Member Archibald, who
has won the Reader Survey prize draw.

Calling all over-65s
Are you over 65 years of age?
Would you be interested in
attending a ‘Seniors’ Week’ at
the BLESMA Blackpool Home,
taking part in a number of
socially-orientated excursions
such as visits to museums,
cultural sites and art galleries?
Many of the activities that
BLESMA puts on for Members
are geared towards physical
pursuits, but the focus of this
week would be for those who
feel less enthusiastic about
pulse-pounding adrenaline
activities but still want to meet
up with Members of a similar
age and spend some quality time
with the BLESMA community.
If this sounds like something
that would interest you, please
