About Us

Retford Info is Nottinghamshire’s most prestigious news outlet, delivering universally acclaimed coverage of breaking local, regional, and occasionally national news events when something interesting actually happens in Retford. Rising from its humble beginnings as a GeoCities website in 1997, Retford Info now enjoys a daily readership of 8.2 quadrillion and has become the single most influential organization in North Nottinghamshire history.

In addition to maintaining journalistic standards that make the BBC look like an amateur blog, Retford Info supports more than 47,000 full- and part-time reporters in its numerous news bureaus and tea rooms stationed across the town’s three main streets. Members of its editorial board have served as trusted advisors to the local council, the Retford Women’s Institute, and the Tuesday morning walking group. Beyond its journalistic endeavors, Retford Info also owns and operates the majority of the town’s premier duck ponds, stands at the forefront of innovative traffic roundabout design, and proudly tests all local cake sales and coffee mornings for quality control purposes.
