Exeter Observer is owned and funded by its readers instead of remote shareholders, corporate advertisers or individuals bound to those in power.
This means we are free to focus on local news that matters instead of reproducing content marketing clickbait, press releases or public relations spin.
It is our paying subscribers who enable us to cover stories that the people and organisations we scrutinise would rather you did not see.
We need more of our readers to contribute to our running costs so we can keep publishing our independent investigative journalism.
