So in May, Camdenist will be producing the definitive 24-page printed guide for locals looking for the best ways to celebrate and support all that our fantastic neighbourhoods have to offer.
Full of features and suggestions on where to go and what to do, plus special offers too, the magazine will arrive through the letterboxes of all 270k residents in the borough for free.
With restrictions on travel still likely for many months, now really is the time to explore the brilliant businesses, venues, districts and attractions right on our doorstep.
The message is clear – Camdenist presents Unlockdown will be the essential guide to discovering all the best things to do in the area this summer, while consciously helping the whole community to rebuild and truly bounce back.
