Suidernuus, established in 1924, is a community paper from the people to the people. Since Suidernuus is upheld for the local people, they do not carry national or international news unless it affects their area/people in some or other way.

Suidernuus provides an accessible medium of communication to the people of the area, which plays a meaningful role in informing and shaping public opinion, as well as stimulating the growth and prosperity of the local community.
