Chronicle Extra (formerly known as The Herald and Post) is a free newspaper delivered weekly to residents in the Tyne and Wear and Northumberland area. The paper includes general news and information about that area within the last week; it also covers sports . It includes advertisements.
The Herald and Post employs people to deliver the papers; anyone over thirteen is allowed to join the waiting list in the hope of getting a paper round to earn money.
In 2007, the owners of the paper (Trinity Mirror, now known as Reach plc) decided to rebrand The Herald and Post, as Chronicle Extra to become the sister paper of the Evening Chronicle.[1]
