The NMA is the voice of national, regional and local news media organisations in the UK – a £4 billion sector read by 45.9 million adults every month in print and online. The NMA was created by the merger of the Newspaper Society and the Newspaper Publishers Association in November 2014. Its services are under the control and guidance of its membership through its committee structure.
Serving the shared interests of news media publishers across the UK, the NMA seeks to protect the general interests of its members in all political, legal and regulatory matters. It promotes the efficacy of news brands in all their forms to government, regulatory authorities, industry bodies and other organisations whose work affects the industry.
The NMA acts as a source of information on issues of general concern to members, facilitating the sharing of best practice covering commercial, marketing, operational and technical issues throughout membership. By joining, publishers support the NMA’s lobbying and member services.
