Worcester News

Worcester News is a prominent local daily newspaper based in Worcester, Worcestershire, England. It serves as a primary source of local journalism, covering community news, sports, and business for the Worcester region and surrounding areas. Originally established as the Worcester Evening News in 1935, it evolved from the historical Worcester Postman, which dates back to the early 18th century, making it part of one of the oldest continuing newspaper traditions in the world.

The publication is currently owned and managed by Newsquest Media Group, one of the largest regional news publishers in the United Kingdom. While the brand focus is deeply rooted in local British reporting, its ownership structure has an international dimension. Newsquest is a direct subsidiary of Gannett Co., Inc., a major American media holding company headquartered in Tysons, Virginia. This structure allows the local newspaper to benefit from the digital infrastructure and resources of a global media conglomerate while maintaining its focus on the Worcestershire community.
