Now magazine donates 5p per copy to Sport Relief

LONDON - IPC's Now magazine has released a special Sport Relief issue today (16 March), with 5p from every copy sold in the UK going to the charity.

Now: Sport Relief issue guest-edited by Kimberley Walsh

The issue is guest-edited by Girls Aloud member Kimberley Walsh, who gives a frank account of her experience of visiting Uganda for Sport Relief.

Also in the special issue, TV presenter Denise Van Outen interviews comedian David Walliams, who led a celebrity bike ride to raise £1m for Sport Relief.

Now editor Abigail Blackburn said: "It's been a pleasure to work with Sport Relief to put together this very special issue of the magazine. Kimberley not only provided a fantastic insight into her emotional journey to Uganda, but she also rolled her sleeves up and took on her guest-editing duties with gusto."

Now, which has a cover price of £1.40, sold an average of 394,130 copies between July and December last year, up 2.5% period on period, but down 9.1% on the year.
