Why Good News Post

Why does the Good News Post exist? … by the Founding Editor

We are passionate to help encourage people across the globe to think and live more positively and happier.

With mental health, depression and anxiety statistics off the scale, the Good News Post exists to help.

A revolution in the way we get news has changed the game. 24.7 negativity now smashes our minds.

Now with the world since Covid19 seemingly on the brink and saturation bad news, it’s time to expand the mission for more good news globally.

Since this newspaper‘s forming in 2016, we have been in partnership with CEOs of two mental health charities, Dawn and Wendy, who have kept us informed of the rocketing rates of mind issues.

It is fitting that they are the consultant editors of this newspaper. Their task? To filter news for mental health. To keep us on course to address the biggest issues of the day.

Since 2011 we have also trained up hundreds of young people across the UK and Malawi to find, write and publish good news stories.

It started in Priory School in Somerset, UK.

This gave birth to the Jill Dando News project, which is fast expanding across the UK and globe. Nigel Dando, Mr Speaker and an expanding team are patrons.

The Good News Post is in schools in the UK and Africa training up young people in the power of good news stories.

We intend to turn bad news round and find the good news that can put a smile on the face of the planet.
