Launching in 2025, North East Free Press will be publishing a free daily weekday round-up of the region’s latest news, business and cultural happenings direct to subscribers inboxes.
With the Daily Dispatch, our aim is to deliver a clean, ad-free, and enjoyable reading experience hand-curated by a small team of experienced journalists (The Guardian, Metro, The Chronicle, Vice, Dazed & Confused, The Quietus etc.) from our coastal newsroom located smack-bang in the heart of North Shields’ new Cultural Quarter.
Each morning you’ll receive a concise, short format round-up of the latest North East news and business stories as well as cultural features (our coverage will span music, art & lit, food, stage, film and comedy) and our hand-picked gig of the day (with an extended weekend gigs preview on Fridays), making sure you’re across the very latest and best of what our beloved region has to offer.
You’ll start receiving new posts right here in your inbox. You can also log into the website to read the full archives or use the free Substack app (warning: it’s addictive!).
In addition to the Daily Dispatch, we have plans for a number of exciting features - both on and offline - in the near future, so stay tuned…
