At Huck we’re proud to be one of the few remaining independent magazines.
Over the last 17 years, and 80 issues, we’ve brought you stories of inspiration, of resistance, of community, and of hope from across the globe.
The times we live in are fraught. We know things are pretty grim out there. Every day feels like a new threat or horror. And yet, amongst it all are people, groups, organisations and communities paddling against the flow and fighting for something better. They are breathing life into a better world, sculpting and creating culture in their own image. We’re proud to be the ones to tell their stories.
In the last month we’ve told the stories of activists resisting Iceland’s horse blood farms. The last of New York’s pigeon racers. The Mexican town that threw out the cartel. A Conker championship in Peckham, London. Palestinian skateboarders. The first African longboard world champion. And tons more. World-class photography, cutting-edge design and original, only-in-Huck reportage.
But we need your help.
The climate for journalism has never been more difficult. As costs rise and revenues sink, it’s harder and harder to keep producing vital and urgent storytelling.
That’s where you come in.
For as little as a cup of coffee a month you can help us continue to produce premium and original journalism around the world. Just £3 a month can ensure we secure our future, and a future for the stories only we can tell.
With your support, we can carry on paddling against the flow for another 80 issues and more.
There are three different tiers to choose from, each with exclusive membership benefits. If you’re able to, please sign up to help support our global, independent journalism.
