Support local independent media

Newham Voices is the borough’s free community newspaper

We need your help

We are looking for local people who can help support us to produce more high-quality local journalism in Newham Voices.

  • We have *no* shareholders
  • We have *no* wealthy backers
  • We are run by a small but dedicated team as part of a not-for-profit community interest company
  • We hold authority to account, expose scandals, highlight inequality, promote good causes, and provide a platform for local people
  • Every penny of income from Newham Voices helps us deliver more journalism in Newham
  • Currently, we are just about able to cover the paper’s costs (design, printing and distribution). Our editorial team is entirely voluntarily and in future, we would like to create paid jobs for aspiring local journalists.
  • We currently have 20 supporters who contribute regularly, but we need more!

How you can help

Our membership scheme has many different options, starting from £5 per month, depending on your ability to contribute. Rewards include having a copy of the paper posted to you every month. Local businesses and charities can also sign up and, from £20 per month, access discounts on advertising.
