April 2012 New owners for View from and Weekender titles NINE community newspapers in Dorset and Somerset have a new owner in Tindle Newspapers, which already publishes more than 200 titles. Tindle, a family-owned independent company, have acquired the View From Weymouth, View From Portland, View From Dorchester, View From Bridport, View From Beaminster and View From Lyme Regis from Lyme Media & Events in Lyme Regis. Tindle have also taken over the Lyme Media group of Weekender titles in Crewkerne, Chard and Ilminster, where Tindle has no free newspapers. The titles will be published by Devon, Dorset and Somerset Series of Newspapers Ltd, a subsidiary of Tindle Newspapers Limited, publishers of the Pulman’s View From titles in Axminster. Philip Evans, founder of the View From titles, has been appointed managing director, and will continue to run the operation from the Lyme Regis offices together with Tindle’s Axminster-based newspapers in East Devon. All full-time staff at the two centres in Axminster and Lyme Regis will be retained with no job losses. The combined group will, have a total of 15 titles in West Dorset, East Devon and South Somerset with a combined weekly distribution of 46,000 copies, making it a significant player in West Country publishing. Sir Ray Tindle, chairman of Tindle Newspapers Limited, said: “We are delighted to add the View From titles to our expanding group of community newspapers. They fit perfectly with our ethos of hyper-local publications and have a strong readership and loyal advertising base upon which we hope to build.” Jerry Ramsdale, managing director of Lyme Media & Events Ltd, said: “I am glad that I will be connected with the View From in the future as a director of the publishing company. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in local publishing and it makes sense in the current difficult financial climate to bring all the titles in the area under one group. “I would like to pay tribute to the View From staff for their commitment over the past two years. They are a very talented team. I would also like to thank the advertisers and hope they will continue to support the same continuing team together with Pulman’s staff.”
