Hello and welcome to Pendle Insider, your new local and independent news outlet.
For too long media companies have been owned by large, faceless, international corporations which are only interested in profits and the bottom line. If your story isn't going to help them sell newspapers then they aren't interested.
The owners and editors of these papers are so detached from the communities that they report on, that they fail to hear and understand the real issues affecting our area.
Here at Pendle Insider we do things differently. We are here to serve the community by raising awareness of local issues (and helping to solve them where possible), as well as providing information, articles and reviews of local businesses and services, reflecting the reality of Pendle.
If you care about your town and community but feel you are being let down and ignored by those in authority (such as the police, council, social services or the press), come and share your gripe with us, and we'll do our best to help.
Pendle is a great place and we're aiming to show that by visiting various businesses and discovering what they have to offer and how we think they fare.
We look forward to having you on-board, and please feel free to get in touch here.
