"The Norfolk Dispatch was a delightful, refreshing read and a beautiful creation. Your words paint little moments so eloquently. I look forward to the next one."

"Beautifully illustrated, warmly written, and full of lovely local detail - The Norfolk Dispatch feels like getting a letter from a friend who really knows the area. The illustrations alone are worth the subscription, and there's something so calming about setting aside a few minutes with a cup of tea to read through the letter. A gorgeous thing to receive each season, and one I imagine would be especially lovely for anyone dreaming of - or settling into - life in Norfolk."
-Kasia Avery, Artist, Author & co-founder of Everything Art

"What a lovely thing to read. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside about a place I have been in and around for decades. Thank you for that, just perfect. We headed to the coast at the weekend because of your lovely words."
-Mel

Hello! I'm Saskia Keeling, Artist and Illustrator, Mother of two, and creator of The Norfolk Dispatch.

I've combined my love of sketching, documenting life with words, and the joy I find in my Norfolk surroundings to create the Dispatch. It's a celebration of the best things that Norfolk has to offer; from food and drink, coastal delights, nature and local businesses, interspersed with retellings of the magic of everyday life with a young family.
