The logo will incorporate 150 into its masthead, while the anniversary will be supported by a year-long marketing campaign to generate new subscriptions.

Using the strapline ‘150 Years of Trusted Advice and Tips' the campaign will target current and prospective subscribers with direct mail, emails and alerts encouraging them to sign up to the title.
