I sent this email to the JC's editorial team this morning. I'm sharing it with you because we are all hugely proud.

I am thrilled to be able to report that the JC's year-on-year ABC circulation figures (30/6/09-30/6/10) are up 3.67%. In June 2009,
circulation was 30,436; this June it reached 31,556 – an increase of
1,120.

Given the context of steep falls across the
industry – some national newspapers have been falling by 15% year-on-year – these
are stunningly good figures – especially without any special campaigns or
advertising. We are increasing circulation based on the best possible reason –
good solid journalism, giving readers something they don’t want to miss out
on.
