In the run-up to the 2024 General Election, we want to expand our coverage and increase our output so that we can accurately represent what Greater Manchester really thinks about local issues. But good, in-depth journalism like this costs money.
We've been operating since 2016 on a shoestring budget, and now is the time for us to grow the business so that it becomes self-sustaining. But it needs an initial boost to cover short-term operating costs and invest in the future of the publication.
We're starting this crowdfunder in Indie News Week, and we'll be running it for one whole month with the aim of reaching £1000 or more to support our work during this busy period for local journalism.
