Gourmet Traveller stood out with readership growing 11% and New Idea Food jumped 19%. Diabetic Living also increased 15%.

The Australian Women’s Weekly remained stable with 1.2 million readerships.

Woman’s Day grew with 3%, while TV Week grew by 1%.

Are Media chief executive officer, Jane Huxley, said: “In tough economic times, people turn to brands they know and trust. Add in cost-of-living pressures and it’s no surprise that our home and food brands have attracted more readers over the past year. Better Homes and Gardens, Gourmet Traveller, Belle, Australian House & Garden and our other brands are highly trusted sources of information and inspiration, with a strong connection to Australians.”
