A new website has launched to serve Tooting with hyper-local news and what's on - but without any annoying advertising.

Tooting Nub News is an online newspaper solely for Tooting and the surrounding area. We are hyper-local so our articles are about what's important for the district.

No clickbait, no nonsense

We will not be publishing any generic London-wide stories to encourage clicks. Unlike other platforms, we do not get any revenue "per click" so we do not need to resort to click-bait, annoying pop-up ads or surveys.

Our aim is for the user to access locally-relevant content in a pleasant viewing format. The site offers Local News, What's On, Local Listings, Classifieds, Property, Jobs and Live Travel.

Soon, we will be offering Obituaries and more as we grow. Nub News intends to fill the vacuum in local news created by the closure and consolidation of local newspapers.

We want to promote local causes and businesses. We want to encourage people to shop locally.

We want you to get involved!

Importantly, our business model relies on your input; be it News or What's On.

Our "Nub It" button enables local people, a councillor, an MP, the chairman of the rugby or football club or a headteacher to write regular articles.

We also encourage businesses, clubs and restaurants to post events to our What's On page. Be it the local theatre company or a £10-steak-for-two night at the local restaurant, we want to promote it. All for free.

Tooting Nub News is the perfect platform for your organisation, charity, business, church, school, sports team - anyone in fact - to share your fantastic achievements with the community. We like good news stories.

We also promote businesses on our local list and it is absolutely free to sign up to - which you can do HERE.

We want to be at the heart of the Tooting community

While it is intrinsic to publish all types of news (even bad, at times), we are passionate about, local, community interest stories and in short, good news!

All submitted content requires a legitimate name, email and telephone number and is moderated by our South West London, Regional Editor Kurt Robson before going live.

If you would like more information please email Kurt on [email protected].
