Today we have announced that we will supporting the @NSPCC, the UK's leading children's charity, in 2024 with £6 million of advertising support. We are delighted to lend a helping hand to support the incredible work they do right across the country.

Enjoyed speaking @pressgazette's Future of Media event on some of the things we are doing at #Newsquest building out a sustainable future for #trustedlocalnews. pressgazette.co.uk/publishers/reg…

I don't really fancy a world where the only source of local news comes from the BBC, alongside the occasional plucky hyperlocal, but that's where we will finish up if its aggressive expansion is allowed to continue unchecked.

Diverting money to compete in a market well-served by commercial publishers will simply, in the long term, reduce choice. How can the rest of us experiment with monetisation models when a cash-rich BBC can simply follow up our stories and provide them on a free-to-access site?

So good to spend time today celebrating the graduation of #Newsquest's latest stars from our 15 month DIPLOMAiQ digital marketing programme run for us by Ascento. All with distinctions. Bravo! #Growinglocalmedia

Newsquest CEO Henry Faure Walker called it "a cynical move": “I’m not surprised by their behaviour but it’s disappointing that Meta is retreating back to their ivory tower leaving brilliant community journalists out in the cold.” pressgazette.co.uk/platforms/meta…

Great exclusive and #Banksy front from the @heraldscotland superb news team!

Really excited that Kristin Roberts is joining @Gannett as Chief Content Officer. She has a great track record and I am sure will have a hugely positive impact as we build out a sustainable local news model across the US. Welcome to the team Kristin! investors.gannett.com/news/news-deta…

@itssophieperry @PinkNews @TheOxfordMail Sorry to be losing you @itssophieperry but congratulations and best of luck in the new role. Thank you for all that you have done at Newsquest.

New on HTFP today: @Ofcom has delayed a decision on whether the BBC’s planned investment in local news services will “harm fair and effective competition” as it considers views from competitors, following criticism from @newsmediaorg and @FaureWalker. holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2022/news/ofco…

.@Ofcom must “awake from its slumber” and intervene to prevent the #BBC crowding out commercial providers with plans to ramp up its own digital local news services, Newsquest chief executive @FaureWalker said @katierazz newsmediauk.org/blog/2022/11/1…

OFCOM asleep on the watch as BBC expansion undermines local news brands. Is this really what the licence fee is for??? Local news brands now read by over 75% of local people. Work with us not against. @DCMS @Ofcom @newsmediaorg holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2022/news/bbc-…

@shezcounihan Hi Elizabeth, Sorry to hear that. If you DM me your details, I will look into it.
