All Hands on Deck
With the deadline for our biggest ever issue luring in the not so distant future it’s been all hands on deck this week as we visit businesses across the region to bring you the most up-to-date news and gossip.
Welcoming our work experience lovely Suzanne Day on Monday, the office was more than a little full with people coming and going for meetings with the team.
Having launched one of our biggest competitions yet in January’s issue, entries were flooding in from the first moment the magazine hit the shelves… and this week was no different.
Offering one lucky reader the chance to undergo the ultimate makeover with the help of thirteen local businesses, from beauty, fitness and dentistry backgrounds, we have it all covered.


Open to all to enter until the 15th February, we are so pleased at the number of entries so far – but keep them coming!! www.velvetmag.co.uk/tenyearsyounger!
Visiting the wonderful world of Willow Hair Consultants on Tuesday, Georgie learnt about the impressive achievements owner Willow Pearson has seen in just eight months ago, while James and Rachel spent an eventful morning at the Menta Coffee Morning in Bury St Edmunds.
Thursday welcomed the first photo shoot of 2012!
Thanks to our model Henry Clift and skills of our photographer Sophie Barnes, look out for some of the hottest menswear outfits in February’s issue… just in time for Valentine’s (Ok! Ok! We know it’s still a month away!!)
Outside the office the team still seemed to be sticking to their January resolutions with Rachel frequenting the gym nightly, Tom doing his usual twice-daily trip and James hitting the roads in his hometown of Ely!
Have a good weekend all!
