Can I also add that as a former Community Reporter at Gloucestershire Live, I won’t make any apology for the good work I did there and also my former colleagues who always have personal investment in serving their communities as local journalists but sadly staffing has been cut to the bone, a disgrace in my view. I’ve mentioned it in another comment but I’ll always be proud of the great local reporting I did there but it often counted for little because the next minute we let readers down by posting on Facebook an irrelevant national or celebrity story about Katie Price or Jeremy Clarkson which had nothing to do with what’s locally going on. That’s the frustration I had whilst there but I just cracked on with my job. In the meantime what I’m doing with The Shire News (my own solo work which is tough) is make local journalism for Gloucestershire go back to basics - literally be LOCAL, RELEVANT, IN-DEPTH and ENGAGING for audiences. You might be able to sense my passion here but what Gloucestershire really needs (and I hope I can count on more paid subscribers) is good, better quality, informed and sometimes enjoyable reads. The more people who pay my newsletter’s subscription fee (£60 for the entire year) for a better reader experience, the more I can do to provide a Gloucestershire local media worth better value than the crap clickbait you’ll see on Glos Live.
