About

Croeso!

All About Newtown is an independent not-for-profit online news and information service for the town of Newtown in Mid Wales. We provide ad-free stories, so rely on reader subscriptions and donations to run.

We provide high quality, news, updates, events, things to do and explore in the Newtown area.

Our Facebook page has been operating since August 2012 and we launched a website and mobile app in 2017. We have since re-branded in 2021 and a new site owner & editor took over in July 2022.

Our website is operated by a not-for-profit community interest company called All About Newtown CIC since May 2023.

Can I send you a story?

Of course! We'd love to hear your own local news and stories - especially ones which aim to bring positivity and happiness to our readers. You can send your stories or any other query to editor@allaboutnewtown.wales.

What do we cover?

We aim to cover the issues and events that affect and reflect the lives of the people of Newtown, and wider into Powys County Council and Wales.

We aim to be fair and objective and, where possible, explain things in a meaningful way with context and analysis.

Our organisation

Our website is operated and owned by All About Newtown CIC, a not-for-profit community interest company which ensures that any profits are re-invested into the company. We are registered in England and Wales with the company number 14860207.
