About Us

About Us — Mercia Chronicle

Mercia Chronicle brings you reliable, community-driven news from Cannock Chase and the wider Mercia region.
We focus on stories that shape local life — from council decisions and community campaigns to culture, business, and sport.

Founded in 2025, our goal is to keep residents informed, connected, and proud of where they live.
We report with accuracy, fairness, and transparency, guided by strong editorial standards and a commitment to the public interest.

Our team of editors, freelance reporters, and community contributors all live locally.
You’ll find us at council meetings, festivals, and high streets — listening to people, asking questions, and telling the stories that matter most.

We:

  • Give residents a space to share their voices and experiences.
  • Ask clear questions of decision-makers.
  • Highlight the creativity, resilience, and spirit of our towns and villages.

You can help us grow by reading, sharing, contributing stories, or supporting us through local partnerships and advertising.
