We believe that whether it be in print or digital formats, that local media matters and regional views count. Our media brands cover key communities throughout the West Country and South Coast of England. 

View From was first launched in 2005 and quickly established a memorable portfolio of free print newspaper titles. These localised brands were skillfully combined with the latest social media solutions to help reach even more people, small businesses and communities. Our tailored news content and relevant promotional information proved very popular with both readers and advertisers.

After many changes of ownership, buy-outs and buy-backs, the View Froms are once again committed to their primary purpose of bringing more local news to towns just like yours. To achieve this aim, low cost franchises and licences (including full training and ongoing support) have been made available to help those keen on getting a foothold in this booming hyperlocal media market.

"View the news that matters to you. Where local opinions count," says regional editor Duncan Williams. "While mainstream corporate media often sets a remote and distant narrative, we focus on local and personal interest news that really lets people know what is going on in the places they actually live and work in."
