To allow newsrooms, journalists and researchers to access suitably qualified journalists, worldwide, Media Access has compiled databases of journalists operating world wide, who are willing to contract to main titles, researchers and broadcasters.To confirm professional capability, all journalists in the UK database will have worked for a national title or broadcaster.

To ensure the security of the journalists, the databases cannot be accessed on-line but Media Access will introduce legitimate newsrooms or genuine enquiries to accredited journalists.

The introduction is free of charge but for security, in the first instance, applications have to be in writing in order for the researchers to ensure the veracity of the enquirer. One an enquirer has been legitimised as genuine, there will be no need to make written application.

If you are a journalist or operate a press agency, willing to work for international titles or broadcasters and free of charge, wish to be included in either the International or UK Journalist Database please email our team at registration@mediaaccess.uk.com or contact us on +44 (0)1206 711077. We do not charge a fee for registration or introduction.”
