EveningLedger.uk is a publication of Ledger House Media Ltd., a private limited company registered in England and Wales (company number 16538492). Our registered office is 86 Deansgate, 5th Floor, Manchester M3 2ER, United Kingdom. Ledger House Media Ltd. is the sole owner and publisher of EveningLedger.uk. There are no external shareholders with editorial influence, no parent company that dictates our news agenda, and no outside investors who hold a stake in our coverage. The company is independently owned and controlled, ensuring that our editorial decisions remain entirely within the newsroom.
How we are funded
EveningLedger.uk generates revenue through a transparent and diversified commercial model. No single revenue stream is permitted to dominate or compromise our editorial independence. Our current funding sources include:
- Display advertising
- Affiliate links
- Commercial partnerships
- Sponsored content
- Newsletter sponsorships
- Content licensing
- Event and media partnerships
- Local advertising packages
Every piece of sponsored or commercial material published on EveningLedger.uk is clearly labelled so that readers can always distinguish between editorial content and paid promotions. For full details on how we label and manage these arrangements, please read our Advertising & Affiliate Disclosure and our Sponsored Content Policy.
Affiliate links
Some of our articles, particularly in our lifestyle, culture and consumer sections, may contain affiliate links. If you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, EveningLedger.uk may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. These links are always disclosed and are never used to influence the editorial merit or angle of a story. Our journalists and editors make product and service recommendations solely on the basis of editorial judgement, never on commercial agreements.
Editorial independence: who controls our coverage?
Advertisers, affiliate partners, sponsors, businesses, agencies, public relations representatives and any other external commercial entity have absolutely no control over the content we publish. No payment, partnership or sponsorship can buy a favourable mention, a suppressed story, or a guaranteed placement. Our editorial decisions are made exclusively by our newsroom team, led by the Editor-in-Chief.
For the full framework governing how we maintain this independence, please see our Editorial Policy.
Governance and accountability
The Editor-in-Chief, Edward Langley, is ultimately accountable for all content published under the EveningLedger.uk name. He oversees editorial policy, corrections, publication decisions, source review and content quality. Edward reports only to the board of Ledger House Media Ltd., which has no role in day-to-day editorial decision-making. Our governance structure is designed to protect journalistic integrity from both commercial and non-commercial pressure. You can meet the full team on our Our Team page.
Transparency commitments
We are committed to being open about who we are and how we work. This includes:
- Publishing our ownership and funding model in full (this page).
- Labelling all sponsored, affiliate and commercially influenced content clearly.
- Maintaining a Complaints Procedure for readers who believe we have fallen short.
- Logging and linking to all corrections and clarifications.
- Explaining our use of AI and automation in our AI & Automation Policy.

- Providing clear information on how to contact us privately via our Contact page.
