Local news is the heartbeat of a community. It connects us, informs us, and champions the people and businesses that make our towns unique. 

But right now, local journalism is under threat. 

At Nub News, we are committed to changing that. 

Donate Here To Help Keep Local Journalism Alive 

We have invested millions into independent local news, ensuring Oakham and other towns have a dedicated, trusted source of journalism. 

Our mission is simple: to make local news sustainable, to tell the stories that matter, and to give our community a voice. 

Unlike many media outlets, we do not bombard you with disruptive ads or chase empty clicks.

Our journalists live and work locally, writing real stories about real people — covering everything from local government decisions to the independent shops that make our high street thrive. 

We believe in community-first journalism, and we know you do too.

Why We Need Your Help 

While Nub News has grown rapidly — with over 10 million readers last year — keeping local news free and accessible for all requires support. 

That is why we are launching a new way for you to help keep independent news alive in Oakham and other towns. 

For less than the price of a cup of coffee each month, you can ensure that high-quality, ad-free, independent journalism continues in our town. 

Your support means more investigative reporting, more local stories, and more advocacy for the people and businesses that make Oakham special. 

How You Can Make a Difference 

We are offering flexible monthly support options at different levels, so you can choose the amount that works for you.
