Sally Perry is Co-founder, Editor and Reporter at Isle of Wight News from OnTheWight.
Sally has been recognised nationally for her in-depth coverage of the three-week occupation of a factory by workers. As Journalism.co.uk commented at the time, “[they] gave the national and local media a run for its money with its comprehensive coverage of the industrial dispute".
She also received an award for her dogged persistence in highlighting the plight of landlocked Ventnor Undercliff residents following a major landslide (over 200 articles in four+ years).
As well as covering local democracy and holding those in power to account for their decisions, OnTheWight is a champion of The Arts, regularly celebrating the creative talents of Islanders.
