From HQ.
Please support your fellow journalists working for Northcliffe Newspapers. The company, despite making £100m profit last year, is planning a massive £25m cuts programme, ironically called Aim Higher.
The aim is higher profits but the plan will mean a worse news service for local communities and worse working conditions for NUJ members as jobs are cut and quality is compromised.
Northcliffe refuse to negotiate with unions. So our members there rely on your support to help save jobs and protect quality. Please paste the message below in to a new email and send it to aimhigher@nng.co.uk

Dear Michael,
I am writing to express my concern at plans by Northcliffe to impose cuts of £25m.
Such cuts will undermine the quality of local journalism and lead to worse working conditions for staff. Staff will lose their jobs, standards will drop and readers will lose out as the cuts bite.
Cutting costs is not the way to achieve your aim of maintaining your market position.
Investing in high quality editorial can help boost readership and win a greater market.
