About us
Founded in 1982 by Val McCalla, The Voice Newspaper was borne out of a need to understand and report on issues that affected British-born black people. McCalla, while working on a London local paper called the East End News in 1981, spearheaded the start of a newspaper that would provide a rich legacy for all black Britons. In the 1980s, the black press had always addressed a generation of immigrants through a number of regionally focused publications such as the West Indian Gazette, The Caribbean Times and West Africa. The Voice Newspaper was officially launched with a loan from Barclays Bank and the first issue of The Voice was printed in August 1982 to coincide with the Notting Hill Carnival. It was sold at a cover price of 54 pence in London. Within three decades it has become “Britain’s most successful black newspaper” – dedicated to connecting with the community, campaigning on issues that matter and celebrating black excellence. In 2019, The Voice moved from a published weekly newspaper to monthly 72 page publication offering a vast array of news and features focused on Black Britain.
