Newstraid Benevolent Fund

Homepage

NewstrAid aims to provide welfare for people who are, or have been, employed in the selling and distribution of newspapers and magazines in the UK and who find themselves in hardship. This includes their immediate family and dependants who are in need or in distress.

NewstrAid is integral to the trade and is there to assist when colleagues fall on hard times, not exclusively the elderly but those who have suffered long term sickness or disability or faced redundancy, family breakdown or difficulty in supporting dependant children.

NewstrAid has been in existence since 1839 and although today’s world and workplace are changing rapidly the charity is there to continue to meet the needs of the less fortunate of the trade.
