Southend News

The Southend Talking Newspaper is a charitable initiative that provides a free weekly audio recording of local news specifically for individuals with vision impairments. Every week, local news articles are recorded and sent out on CDs or USB memory sticks, allowing listeners to stay informed about their community.

Originally established in 1977, the service has evolved from tape recordings to contemporary formats and continues to be supported by dedicated volunteers. The charity actively seeks to raise awareness and encourage participation to ensure that those unable to read newspapers receive valuable local information and features.
