My name is Richard, and I have worked at the Portsmouth News for more than two and half years. 

As the paper's Fareham reporter, I have been able to cover a wide variety of stories, from plans that will create a new town in the borough to an annual horse fair held during pandemic restrictions. Living and working in Portsmouth, I also cover news stories across the city - whether its crime, politics, or a quirky tale that will make people smile, every day throws up a different tale worth telling. 

I love the variety of my role and speaking to people about the issues that matter to them - so please email or drop us a message on the Portsmouth News Facebook page if you think we could help spread the word about what matters to you.
