Stroud Times would like to thank you, our loyal readers, for the incredible support you’ve shown since we launched our Pay What You Feel donation initiative to help sustain truly independent journalism.
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference. When more people are able to donate just a few pounds, it helps us become more sustainable and ensures we can continue providing the local news that matters most.
Editor Ash Loveridge said: “We can’t thank our readers enough. Every pound really does help us continue providing free-to-view local news for our community.”
If Stroud Times has helped you feel more connected, better informed, or more in touch with your community, we’re gently asking you to consider making a Pay What You Feel contribution.
There’s no fixed amount and no expectation—just whatever feels right for you.
Unlike many news organisations, we’re not owned by a multinational media company or get any government funding support. We’re proudly independent and focused entirely on our local communities.
When you click on a Stroud Times story, you’ll find news from Stroud, Nailsworth, Stonehouse, Dursley and the surrounding villages—not stories from Liverpool, Manchester or places hundreds of miles away.
Your support helps us keep local journalism free to read, independent, and focused on the communities we serve. Thank you for being part of our journey.
