Win a copy of The Extra Mile: Perk of the day, October 13

By Meg Houghton-Gilmour  Wednesday Oct 12, 2022

Bristol24/7 is completely independent, and our local journalism is supported by our community of members. Members pay £5 a month or £45 a year and are a crucial part of ensuring that Bristol has an independent local media voice for years to come.

To say thank you to our members for their support, we organise ‘perks’ – freebies, discounts and competitions – such as free pints, theatre tickets, yoga classes and more with the best of Bristol’s local businesses.

This October, we’ve got a different perk for every single day of the month.

Independent journalism
is needed now More than ever
Keep our city's journalism independent. Become a supporter member today.

On our thirteenth day, we’ve joined forces with the team behind The Extra Mile to give you a chance to win a copy of this unique guidebook.

The Extra Mile is an insider’s guide to alternative and delicious places to stop just off motorways and main roads.Motorway services are boring – motorways are boring – but they’re a necessary and convenient evil when you need to break the journey, especially when travelling with kids and pets.

Enter The Extra Mile, here to steer you away from mediocre, expensive motorway service stations and garage forecourt food and into the arms of the UK’s best farm shops, independent cafes, and cosy pubs, all within striking distance of motorway junctions and main A roads.

Do you know a great farm shops, café, tea room or eatery within fifteen minutes of the motorway? Research has begun for the 2023 edition of The Extra Mile. Nominate your suggestions of great independent businesses here.

Become a member today to enter this competition, and many more!
