Impress (regulator)
Independent press regulator in the UK
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Impress: The Independent Monitor for the Press CIC (formerly stylised as IMPRESS) is an independent press regulator in the UK. It was the first to be recognised by the Press Recognition Panel. Impress regulates over 200 titles, consisting of a variety of independent local, investigative and special interest news publications across the UK. No national newspaper has signed up to the new regulator; most continue to be members of the unrecognised IPSO. Its founder is Jonathan Heawood and its current Chief Executive is Lexie Kirkconnell-Kawana.
