At Trending Britain, we aim to publish content that is accurate, fair, useful and worth our readers’ time. These guidelines apply to everything we publish, whether written by our team or by contributors.
Accuracy
We make reasonable efforts to check facts, quotes and figures before publishing.
Information that cannot be independently confirmed is presented clearly as an allegation, claim or opinion rather than as established fact.
If we make an error, we aim to correct it promptly and transparently in accordance with our Correction Policy.
Fairness
We aim to present relevant perspectives fairly, particularly when a story involves disagreement or competing claims.
Opinion and commentary are clearly identified and kept separate from news reporting.
Sources and Attribution
We use credible sources and attribute information obtained from other publications, organisations or individuals where appropriate.
We prefer original reporting and research rather than simply reproducing material published elsewhere.
Content Standards
Our content should be:
- Original and free from plagiarism
- Clear and easy to understand
- Accurate and supported by reliable information
- Relevant to the subject being discussed
- Headlined accurately without deliberately misleading readers
We also take care when covering sensitive subjects such as crime, accidents, tragedies and personal matters.
Editorial Independence
Our editorial decisions are independent of advertisers and sponsors.
Where content is sponsored or paid for, it will be clearly identified. Advertising or commercial relationships do not determine our regular editorial coverage.
Corrections and Feedback
If you believe we have published something inaccurate or have concerns about a particular article, please contact us. We take legitimate corrections and feedback seriously.
