covering a council meeting
All this costs time and money to produce... Image: The Greenwich Wire

The Greenwich Wire covers the stories SE London’s traditional local media gave up on years ago — what your councillors are up to, the endless surge of new building projects, and how we get around our amazing patch of the capital city. We sit in meetings, we read the documents, we talk to people, we ask questions.

We mainly cover stories in the borough of Greenwich, with stories from Lewisham, Bexley and other neighbouring boroughs where they have wider relevance.

Can you help us grow with a monthly contribution? We’d love it if you could.

Your contribution is appreciated.

We don’t smother our website with ads, and we won’t patronise you with clickbait or duff stories ripped off from elsewhere. We report robustly, fairly and professionally.

As well as stories from our founder and editor, Darryl Chamberlain, and occasional freelance pieces, we also get stories from the BBC-funded Local Democracy Reporting Service, as well as contributions from members of the community.

We have just one part-time staff member. We don’t have the help from government that props up the legacy titles, such as public notices or state advertising.

If you’re already a supporter and need to make changes, you can log in to your account here.

If you hit a problem with the payment system (other than card issues), please get in touch and we’ll see what we can do to help. If you’re a BT Internet customer, please whitelist flyovermedia.london so our emails don’t fall into the provider’s rather eager spam filter.

Thank you for reading and supporting The Greenwich Wire.
