Big Issue launches two editorial newsletters

The newsletters will focus on employment issues and surviving the cost of living crisis.

Working On It, a weekly newsletter from employment reporter Evie Breese, will provide readers with a roundup of the most important stories about pay, workers’ rights, work/life balance, the future of work, and recruitment.

Survival Guide, cost of living reporter Isabella McRae, aims to help readers navigate the cost of living crisis, bringing the latest news, money-saving tips, uplifting stories showing the strength of communities, and ways to take action on the issues its readers care about. It will cover difficult topics, but its purpose is also to bring hope. The Big Issue hopes the newsletter will remind people that change is possible.

Alastair Reid, Digital Editor, Big Issue commented: “I’m delighted to get these newsletters out there to give readers support through these difficult times. Our employment and cost of living articles have been attracting visitors in the hundreds of thousands so it makes sense to provide the information direct to people’s inboxes, as well as the best from other publishers and resources. Along with new ventures like Big Issue Recruit, we at Big Issue Group have been giving support to some of the most vulnerable people in the country for more than 30 years, so I’m proud our editorial output can serve the same purpose.”
