Welcome

Welcome to our newly extended magazine which has incorporated Ascot to become Ascot, Windsor & Maidenhead Local magazine... and a vibrant and engaging issue it is, packed full of interesting features and exclusive interviews. We start with our very own favourite local theme park, Legoland Windsor Resort, and take you on a journey over to Mountbatten Grange, where residents are ‘in it to win it’ with The Big CareUK community sports day, with plenty of laughter and enjoyment for all!

Continuing on, we stop by the Long Walk and Deer Park on our way to foraging for ‘wild edibles’ before heading up to Taplow and visiting Roux at Skindles, ‘a gem of a place’ where there are many delights to savour. Next we call in to spend 5 minute with Ruchi, of Milaanj at the Beehive in White Waltham, where culinary innovation meets seasonal inspiration.

Further afield, we travel to San Marino and Italy before arriving back in time to see the autumn colours in Stourhead, and then to check in on our shops and artisan crafters at Holme Grange craft village.

In Burnham, we meet up with Abbeyfield at their new rehabilitation centre, Nicholas house, where they are empowering independence with transformative senior care, and we end our journey where we started, back in Datchet, Windsor and our very own ABRS Roofing services, who provide superior roofing services across the South of England.

A massive thank you to all our fantastic local businesses who continue to support our Local Area magazine, and enjoy September as the Summer starts to cool and we approach Autumn, we will see you next time.... where will our next journey take us?
