The 大象传媒 has committed to a number of projects over the Charter period:
- Delivering a News Hub to give external media organisations access to 大象传媒 video material for use online.
- A Shared Data Unit - staffed by the 大象传媒 alongside reporters on secondment from local news providers - to share data journalism with news organisations across the media industry.
- The employment of up to 165 Local Democracy Reporters who cover councils and other public services on behalf of the 大象传媒 and local news organisations.
The partnerships were created in 2017 as a result of an agreement between the 大象传媒 and the , which represents the majority of the UK's regional press, and a wider dialogue with other parts of the local news industry.
More than 200 media organisations representing more than 1,100 print, online or broadcast outlets are now local news partners.
They are entitled to receive content generated through the News Hub, Shared Data Unit and Local Democracy Reporters.
