Ideal Home, the UK's biggest-selling home interest title, is bagging a free copy of Fresh, the recipe and issue-driven food magazine, with its July issue. It is the first time that the IPC SouthBank title has sampled a magazine from another publisher.
Ideal Home publishing director Yvonne Ramsden comments: “Ideal Home and Fresh complement each other perfectly as they have similar readerships, sharing many common interests. This promotion offers Ideal Home readers a bumper package of two great magazines for the price of one – continuing our strategy of offering exceptional value every month.”
Neil Presland, publisher, Naked Media, adds: “What a way to celebrate our first birthday and at such a core time for the food world. Food and the home are core for both readerships - it's a match made in heaven.”
Ideal Home's July issue, on sale from June 6, includes features on outdoor lighting, celebrating summer with outdoor living and dining, plus bathroom and kitchen makeovers.
