The July/August issue of The Bath & Wiltshire Parent is now being delivered to schools across Bath, West Wiltshire and North Somerset.
This landmark issue marks a special milestone for the magazine as we celebrate our 100th issue. Since 2009, The Bath & Wiltshire Parent has been connecting local families with schools, events, attractions, activities and expert advice from across the region.

Today, it remains Bath’s biggest magazine and the only magazine distributed through every school – state and private, primary and secondary – in Bath, as well as many more across West Wiltshire and North Somerset, reaching 22,000 families every issue.
