Introducing the Athena Women in Business Supplement

We are relaunching the Athena Women in Business supplement in September 2026. Please see below for an example from the previous Regional Director.

This opportunity is not being advertised publicly and has been negotiated specifically for Athena West Berkshire members as part of our growing partnership with The Newbury News.

The vision is to create a regular feature showcasing Athena members, helping to raise the profile of women in business across our region while demonstrating the incredible expertise within our network. 

What is included?

Each participant will receive:

• A quarter-page advertisement (17cm high x 13.2cm wide)
• An editorial feature about their business
• A professional headshot
• A sponsored Facebook post managed by The Newbury News social media team and targeted to relevant audiences for your business
• An end-of-campaign report detailing engagement and reach

Audience Reach

The Newbury News currently reaches:

• 23,942 weekly readers (JICREG audited figures)
• Over 2,500 digital subscribers
• Over 25,000 newsletter subscribers

Exclusive Athena Rate

Because we are participating as a group, I have secured a special Athena rate of just £125 + VAT per business

We have our numbers for the September edition and are now starting a waiting list for future editions. Complete the form with your details and I will be in touch as spaces become available.

Why am I so excited about this?

One of my goals as Regional Director is to create opportunities that help our members raise their profile beyond Athena meetings.

Visibility builds credibility. Credibility builds trust. Trust often leads to opportunities.

I am delighted to be able to bring this opportunity to our community and hope it will be the first of many collaborations with Claire and The Newbury News.
