Support this website
This website has been running for over 10 years and although advertising revenue helps fund the website, it does not cover our costs. That's why I teamed up with his DonorBox to set up a facility where people can donate the cost of a website and the time they spend writing and researching news articles.
This is very similar to how the Guardian and many smaller websites are currently trying to make money in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.
Whether it's a one-off donation or a recurring donation, any additional support will go a long way towards covering the costs of running this website and keeping it regularly topped up with news and facts from London.
