Media Access specialise in location tracing, genealogical research, social media research and has compiled databases of journalists operating within the UK and globally. All research complies with the prevailing legislation and involves data protection compliant investigation

Media Access operate 24/7, 365 days a year and provide legally compliant research facilities to the global media. Within the UK, Media Access identifies location addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses for both individuals and businesses; when available information is to hand, it is possible to reverse both telephone numbers and email addresses to identify and locate a subscriber. The data is accessed from consented information and is legally compliant.

Genealogical research is conducted in house, using an inhouse database and where available, publicly listed records. Additional research is completed using old volumes of various directories or books. For protracted, external enquiries we utilise a former research editor, previously employed by a UK national publication.

Media Access provide genealogical profiles and location details of surviving individuals, together with former addresses of deceased or gone-away persons – details of the genealogical service can be found at Genealogy, Public Records and Archive Material

The Media Access, journalist databases are unique and exclusive; the databases contain details of journalists and researchers, working within the UK and abroad. All have previously been employed at national title/broadcast level and are either self-employed contractors or run press agencies.

If you are a journalist or researcher and wish to engage a journalist within the UK or in another country, Media Access will identify a specialist reporter/researcher.
