THE Village Voice magazine, serving the communities of Abbotstone, Bighton, Gundleton and Old Alresford, has produced its last edition.

Editors Jill and Geoff Buss have stepped down after 13 years of producing the magazine six times a year.

Bighton Parish Council hopes there will be some form of replacement.

The Bighton and Gundleton community website paid tribute to Mr and Mrs Buss: “Their contribution to village life has been immeasurable and they can be rightly proud that Village Voice became some of the glue that held our communities together.”
