Farnton.org has rebranded itself as “The Farnton Times“, converting from a single purpose community history group into a local news organization.
The decision comes after three years of the organization’s existence, which while making a number of important achievements, ultimately come at a dead end on where to go next.
By redesigning and broadening its portfolio, The Farnton Times will be better able to engage itself with the local community and better represent the Southwest of Sunderland, as opposed to focusing on the important, albeit niche history of a single estate.
The new Farnton Times paper consequentially becomes the first news organization to be established in the name of Farringdon, and will push hard for local revival.
