NMA Issues 1105 Press Cards Over Past Year

The News Media Association has issued 1,105 press cards to newsgatherers working in the news media industry over the period of April 2020 to March 2021.

Press cards are formally recognised by all police forces in the UK, by the Ministry of Justice, the Royal Households and by other public bodies.

The cost of a press card is £20 for those working for NMA members and £40 for those working for national and regional news media who are non-members.

The NMA issues press cards as part of its media facilities service for member publishers which also includes the Royal Rota scheme enabling national and regional titles to access pooled pictures from high profile royal and political events across the UK.
