About us

Sharing passions, building brands

Welcome to Our Media. We’re a media company with a difference – one full of people who live and breathe the very same interests as our audiences. From cycling to science, birdwatching to cross-stitching, we share our readers’ passions, and the joy and fulfilment that comes with them. So our content carries real trust, authority and expertise.

With that trust, we’ve created a portfolio of market-leading brands, a loyal subscriber base and a cross-platform reach of unrivalled quality and scale. We have an incredible, 30-year heritage in print and digital innovation, and we are a growing force in e-commerce, video & audio and live events.

Our audiences and partners

Our brands reach millions and are respected worldwide, yet at heart our business is built on personal connections. We’re part of the same communities as our special-interest audiences, and as a result, those audiences provide us with engagement, data and insight which creates genuine value for our commercial partners.

We deliver highly effective commercial solutions across our portfolio, and also provide a full content marketing agency service to bring creativity and strategic thinking to clients’ own channels. We build longstanding relationships because we take the time to listen, believe anything is possible, and act with integrity.

From Bristol to the world

We are a business with a truly global reach, and also rooted in our community. We are based in the heart of Bristol, a creative, agenda-setting city that’s an inspiring place to live and work.

Here we employ some 350 talented people with an inspiring range of skills, from content creation and design, to sales and commercial development, to project management, finance and people. We aim to play a full part in the growth and development of our amazing city in partnership with people and organisations across the region: together we can be a real force for good.

Our values  

We strongly believe that work is not just about what we achieve, but how we achieve it. We want our people to thrive and develop, and we want to effect positive change in the world.

We have an ambitious and robust sustainability strategy, which includes a zero-to-waste, renewable-energy-fuelled office at Eagle House, the complete removal of single-use plastics from our supply chain, and a roadmap to be fully carbon neutral by 2030.

To put that spirit at the heart of our business, we recently co-created a set of values with input from everyone here. Our values are:
