NN Journal CIC is an independent news site for Northamptonshire.
Run by local journalist Sarah Ward it reports on news and events of social importance in the county.
Established as a social enterprise NN Journal’s mission is to ensure that local journalism not only survives but thrives. To this end, three quarters of our weekly news output is free, so that the Northants population is better informed about the area.
Sarah says: “NN Journal was founded in response to the decline of local journalism in our county over the past few years. The explosion of social media and the demise of traditional advertising streams has sadly led to the established local newspapers either closing (as was the case with the Herald and Post in 2016 ) or having to lay off staff and reduce the number of reporters. As a result the coverage of Northamptonshire society and communities has not been as comprehensive as it once was. People in power are not being held to account and the public is being let down.”
NN Journal will always provide free articles during the week to its email subscribers, and there is a paid for version. Without advertisers we need people to subscribe to support our reporting.
