Scunthorpe Community News
We created Visit Scunthorpe in 2009 to provide residents with an independent news site on which they can post and discuss news and views about the area they live in.
Our next release of the site is well under way, promising to deliver more control to the editing of member's articles, a more dynamic home page and better support for mobile interfaces
For an overview of all articles, vist our News Room. We also categorise news in to the following sections:
We will soon be adding a new free jobs section where members of the public can post CV Summaries and "Work Wanted" ads, and local businesses can post job adverts. All free.
We also have our own community photo galleries, of which a select few will shortly be on public display at the Baths Hall in scunthorpe.
Visit Scunthorpe News and Views
We've made some changes to the site over the new year so that we can not only keep our focus on local news, but also differentiate between National news
to also provide a politics / comments and opinions section.
The site's still as easy to use as ever, now when you publish a new article you'll be asked to put it in a category, by default it will go in Local News.
For more older articles check out our News Room. Dont forget you can add to and contribute to this site for free, all you need is an account, and email address and a little common sense.

About us
Visit Scunthorpe is North Lincolnshire's only truly independent, non commercial, community news web site.Established in January 2010 we have lots of members with a wide range of views who all contribute independently with articles of their own.
You won't find dozens of adverts covering our site, or some poor attempt to promote local business services under the guise of offering a community service.
Here on VisitScunthorpe we are interested in just one thing, building an online community which is representative of the people of Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire and the surrounding area.
Paul. Founder Visit Scunthorpe.
