Welcome to Headliners

Headliners is a UK-wide news agency producing news, features and comment by young people for everyone.

Through a unique learning through journalism programme, young people aged 8 to 19 research and write stories on issues that are important to them for publication in national and local newspapers, magazines, television and radio.

We relaunched as Headliners in January 2007. Read the brochure, watch the showreel and supporters video.
