Who we are

Established in 2009, The Lemon Press is the University of York’s satire magazine.  Our main focus is humour, and we achieve this through a combination of off-beat reporting, creative writing and miscellaneous insight. The magazine is written by and for students. In its first year, it was printed once a term, generating three issues for the year. However, the magazine is already set to expand dramatically with plans for five issues in the coming year. As a measure of its ambition, quality and wide-appeal, The Lemon Press won a national award in its first year of existence – ‘Best Student Media’ at the NUS Awards 2010.

Our audience

The Lemon Press is a high quality magazine, valuing presentation and aesthetics. It is distributed throughout campus, with a potential readership of 12,000. We print adverts both in both full colour and black & white, in a number of different sizes, and have very reasonable prices.

The online version of the magazine – thelemonpress.co.uk – experiences 3,000 hits per week, with increased daily averages of over 3,500 during the week the print edition is released. We do banner ads, text ads, images, sponsorship deals etc.
