Rekord online marks the beginning of a new era for the brand

Over the past two decades, the paper has become a trustworthy source of local information, albeit news or advertising, neatly packed into a single product that gets delivered to your door weekly. While Rekord remains the biggest, most read community newspaper in the city, the media landscape is undoubtedly changing and so is the way people consume information.

With the help of an international media expert, we created a state of the art hyper-local community news site offering timely breaking and daily news to keep our readers informed. We want to showcase local people, places and cultures and encourage debate about issues that interest our readers.

This is as much your site as it is ours. We want it to be the meeting place for community members, where they share their concerns, brag about their achievements and talk about their daily lives. We invite you to take part in the conversation by commenting on the stories, providing tips and photos and making suggestions.
