Tower Hamlets Slice is a family of daily news outlets that cover arts, culture, heritage, shopping, local campaigns and things to do in Tower Hamlets. We publish daily on our websites and send out a weekly edition to our subscribers. We also publish a biannual print magazine. We also run social media campaigns on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to help grow our audience of residents and destination visitors.
To reach our east London audiences, we offer an affordable membership scheme and one-off advertising options.

Advertising
Established in 2018, we are the number one marketing resource for east London with presence in print, online, on social media and in our newsletters.
1. We are fiercely independent
Tower Hamlets Slice is an independent newspaper with editorial integrity, not a mouthpiece for a corporate or municipal body. We are a band of passionate people who pound the pavements and write from the heart, not a content marketing agency hired to create bland, promotional content. We produce high-quality written, visual and video content written by media professionals who are committed to bringing excellence to the local community. We understand community development, and have worked on projects with local schools, art groups and cultural organisations. Our content is read and respected not only locally but also citywide and nationally.
2. We champion the local economy
Tower Hamlets Slice is published by Social Streets C.I.C, a social enterprise whose mission is to increase participation in the local community. We are passionate about the high street and believe it is a vital community space that provides opportunities and wellbeing to the community. For decades high streets have been struggling in the face of changing shopping habits, yet local people still want to have exciting places to eat, drink, shop and socialise in their neighbourhood. So we work day in day out to grow local audiences and connect them to the most exciting and inspiring things in their local area.
3. Our readers are local – and love local
Our core readership is the 310,000 people who live in Tower Hamlets, and our coverage for events extends into Hackney and Newham too. Our readers are active members of the local community: they support grassroots campaigns, they enjoy living in a multicultural borough, they care about local politics, they are passionate about our environment, they like to be on first-name terms with shop owners, they are fascinated by local history, and they want to know how to get the most from their area.
Our advertising rates
We offer a wide range of advertising options for both members and non-members. Our advertising pack contains rates for both members and non-members.
