Inside 6 Bowel Cancer Awareness The scoop on poop 8 Later in life love 10 Snug, yet stylish in a scarf 16 Yule love the Carrington Hotel Welcome As our publications have matured over the years to become more lifestyle magazines, we've made the decision to re-brand. Our trading name is 'On The Coast Publications' so it was an easy choice to make! We are excited about 'On The Coast – Over 55'! It's a very suitable name change and is ideal for where our business is currently at. Don’t worry though, you will still receive the same great quality and content but in a refreshed format. Last month we celebrated our 100th edition of Kidz on the Coast (now rebranded to 'On The Coast ~ Families'). It was a momentous occasion for us, after being in business for almost 18 years. These 18 years in business have taught us to face challenges head on and that most days, we are required to wear our big girl pants, pulled up high and make sure we have our tough skin on! Many of you will have your own business or have had this experience in the past. It isn’t something that you can explain to others until they are rowing the same boat! Having said that though, there have been a huge amount of highlights and an abundance of positives. These include getting to know our talented contributors who are passionate about their field of expertise and generous in sharing their knowledge. It’s these contributors who make our publications the best they can be. Our heartfelt thanks to every single writer who has contributed over the past years. There is lots happening on the Coast in the next two months and this edition is jam-packed with goodness! Enjoy the read and send us your thoughts about our refreshed look.
