A new magazine for students is being launched in the East Midlands later this year.

Twisted will cover student life in Lincoln and focus on news, features, fashion, music and sport from the area.

Founders claim it will be the only magazine distributed to Lincoln's three main education institutes – the University of Lincoln, Lincoln College and Bishop Grosseteste, University College Lincoln.

Twisted will be fully launched online next month – an pilot version of the sites is now live – with a print product due out from September.

The magazine is the brainchild of University of Lincoln journalism student Gina Davies, who earlier this year played a key role in organising the 24th European Journalism Forum at the centre, held in the UK for the first time in its history.

She is now looking for volunteers to join its staff from writers to sub-editors and designers.

Applicants do not have to be students to join the magazine but an interest in student life is key.

Visit twistedlincoln.co.uk for more details and to apply before Friday.
