Ahhhh Schnews, reminds me of Brighton, I hope you can still get the lo-fi paper version.

What about www.positivenews.org.uk - can be a bit fluffy and may seem irrelevant as it tends not to cover the "real" news, but the premise of redressing the balance by reporting positive happenings is worthwhile.
