About Us

We are one of the UK’s oldest and most renowned independent press agencies.

Based on the south coast, our highly experienced team of reporters specialise in breaking news, sport and features stories for national newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations.

Since filing our first piece of copy as M & Y in 1970 we have had tens of thousands of articles used by all the major publications, ranging from hard-hitting court reports to real-life features and quirky stories to live football matches.

Our phone lines are open 365 days a year and twenty four hours a day, ensuring we never miss the big breaking news.

The agency’s long-established photographic department has built up a picture library among the best in England with snaps of the Royal family, the nation’s biggest music and TV stars, Premier League footballers and the south’s most recognisable landmarks.

We have travelled far and wide to report the biggest stories, including two submarine crashes involving the British Navy and their international colleagues, one of which led to questions being asked in the House of Commons, the plight of refugees in Romania after the collapse of communism and football matches in Spain, Norway, Portugal, Germany and the Czech Republic.

Media outlets and PR companies across the globe use our services on a daily basis so if you have a story you want told or a picture to be taken make sure youcontact M&Y News Agency.
