About Carmarthenshire News Online

Welcome to Carmarthenshire News Online, your trusted source for local news, stories, and community updates across Carmarthenshire and West Wales.

As an independent and regulated news outlet, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of accuracy, transparency, and accountability in every report we publish.

Our mission is to ensure that everyone in Carmarthenshire has access to reliable, fact-checked journalism that informs, educates, and empowers. From local government and council news
to community stories, business developments, education, and culture, we keep you connected to what truly matters in our county.

Our Commitment to Ethical Journalism

Carmarthenshire News Online operates under a strict Editorial Policy and a robust Complaints Procedure designed to protect our readers and uphold the highest professional standards.

We are fully GDPR compliant, and our Privacy Policy ensures your data is always handled responsibly.

Our journalists and editors are proud members of the National Union of Journalists (NUJ), demonstrating our commitment to integrity and professional excellence. We also participate in ongoing training and digital innovation programmes with Google News Initiative and Meta Journalism Project to stay ahead in today’s evolving media landscape.

Supporting Independent Local News

We believe that no news is bad news. Across the UK, many towns and villages are turning into news deserts, places where there’s no trusted source of local information. When community news disappears, the people it serves know less, understand less, and can do less.

As a community-owned, independent newsroom, Carmarthenshire News Online exists to tell the stories that matter most to the people who live and work here.

If our journalism has helped you better understand our community, please consider supporting us with a monthly donation. Every contribution helps us continue to provide free, independent, and reliable local news for everyone.

Choose the news. Don’t lose the news.
