A note from Daniel

Hi. Like a lot of you, I’ve always known there’s so much good happening across England every week, real, local, uplifting stories worth celebrating. I just wished there was one place that brought them all together, somewhere I’d genuinely look forward to opening each morning.

Being an IT guy, I thought, hmm, if I made a good news website what would I even call it, what would the domain be? First search was goodnewsengland.co.uk and I couldn’t believe it was actually available. All these years of the internet and still nobody had wanted it.

So here we are. Still early days, but this is where I come to read the news now, and I really hope you do too!

Daniel, founder
