Why we need your help
-
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 local authority to account, expose scandals, highlight inequality, promote good causes, and provide people a platform to highlight what matters to them -
Every penny of income from Waltham Forest Echo helps us deliver more journalism in Waltham Forest -
The paper costs nearly £6,000 per month to produce and distribute, but monthly income is under £5,000 currently -
We currently have 176 supporters who contribute around 23% of our income, but we need more!

No news is bad news
Independent news outlets like ours – reporting for the community without rich backers – are under threat of closure, turning British towns into news deserts.
The audiences they serve know less, understand less, and can do less.
If our coverage has helped you understand our community a little bit better, please consider supporting us with a monthly, yearly or one-off donation.
Choose the news. Don’t lose the news.
