Newly-updated, this year’s guide also features the Moneymaker Issue, which takes a lighthearted look at money and how to make a bit more of it in your spare time.

Editor Heather Alabaster said: “We came up with the Moneymaker Issue to entertain, as well as offer practical ways to increase your income and make it stretch a bit further. How about selling your holiday snaps, or renting your home as a film location? There are simple ideas and some unusual ones, but they’re all achievable with little or no outlay.”
