Our mission

Beautifully delivered

All you have to do is choose a subscription stream that matches your interests. If you really can't decide let us choose for you and go Totally Free Range for a mystery magazine each time.

Never stop learning. There are lots of magazines out there telling amazing stories that will speak to your mind and emotions. We want to put some of them in your hands so you can experience this for yourselves.

You’ll get a different magazine delivered to your door every two months, in a beautiful envelope signalling that it’s time to put the kettle on, sit in your comfy chair and dive into a wonderful new world.

Curated to delight

Guided Discovery

Find your tribe

We put our heads together, use our 100+ years collective experience in indie mags to seek out the best magazines to surprise, delight and entertain.

With each magazine you'll also receive a set of ‘tasting notes’. They will tell you about the magazine, who made it and why we think
you’ll love it.

Each new magazine will bring fresh ideas, stories and experiences – a great starting point for a conversation with our community on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Can I give as a gift?

The Free Rangers will ride to your rescue. A Free Range Subscription makes an excellent gift. Just tell us it's a gift when you purchase and we'll send you a gift card that you can hand over at Christmas (or birthday, wedding, leaving do...you get the idea). The first magazines will be sent out in January. Even better, the recipient will be reminded throughout the year, just how amazing you really are.

Who are you lot, anyway??

We’ve been in magazines our whole lives. We make ‘em. We sell ‘em. We live, eat and breathe ‘em. These days, the best magazines aren’t in your local supermarket or newsagent. They’re being made by small passionate producers all around the world and there’s literally thousands. But like handmade crafts, they can’t be mass-produced so they need seeking out, in indie mags stores, trendy coffee shops and online shops like ours. We created Pics & Ink back in 2018, to help people find these mags and to help these mags find their readers.

What if I already buy or subscribe to some magazines??

No problem. If you already subscribe to some independent magazines then simply tell us in the comments box when you order and we'll make sure we don't send you those ones as part of your Free Range Subscription. We'll always send you magazines just as they are released so there's no chance you will have bought it already.

What if I decide to cancel?

We can't see why you'd want to! But if you do then that's fine, let us know via email or telephone and we'll cancel your subscription and refund you for any unmailed issues.

When will I receive my magazines?

We'll send out six magazines over each twelve month period; your magazines will arrive in January, March, May, July, September and November 2022. Each of our selected magazines will have a slightly different publication date, so that will be the final deciding factor on our posting date.
