Edge Hill magazine wins award

Edge Hill's quarterly magazine, E42, has been recognised with a prestigious national award.

E42 scooped an Award of Excellence in this year's British Association of Communicators in Business awards (CiB) - a professional body for staff involved in communications.

The Home Office publication, The Sharp End, was the winner of the award in 2008.

The magazine has also been shortlisted for an additional award in the category of News Magazines. The winner of this will be announced at an awards ceremony on 22 May.

E42 is a stylish, features-led magazine published every term to communicate the University's news and events. Each issue features articles about research, staff and students and cutting-edge projects that are always relevant to current affairs and debate.

Feedback from the CiB judges described the magazine as "a Venus flytrap - the appearance encourages the reader to pick it up and open the pages and when drawn in, you can't get out again as you must read on."

Issue three of E42 is now available. To receive a copy, please email Mary Bernia at e42@edgehill.ac.uk. Alternatively, articles can be read online at www.edgehill.ac.uk/e42.
