History and profile

edit

It was founded as the Women's News, a monthly tabloid format newspaper, in 2002 by Greg and Sarah Thomson and was renamed the Women's Post in 2003.[4] In 2008, it relaunched in a glossy news magazine format which was published weekly.[2][5] The first issue of the magazine was published on 1 August 2008.[2] In 2009, the magazine's print schedule moved to six times a year with its online version moving from monthly to weekly publication. Since 2010, however, the print version has only been published quarterly.

Thomson moved to Barbados in 2018 to begin and run an ecotourism business.[6][7]

The magazine's website was last updated in November 2019.
