Share the gift of great journalism while also contributing to the fight against poverty.
Why should you give the Big Issue as a gift?
Every penny we make goes back into the organisation. With a gift subscription, not only will your friend receive an award-winning magazine that drives change, but you’re also contributing to the Big Issue’s fight to dismantle poverty – each subscription really does make a difference.

What’s inside
Every week, Big Issue publishes investigative reporting that exposes injustice, challenges those in power, and sheds light on issues like poverty, homelessness and inequality.
You’ll also find in-depth interviews with some of the biggest names in culture, alongside revealing, personal reflections in Letter to My Younger Self, where well-known figures look back on the moments that shaped them. Our culture pages keep you up to date with reviews and interviews across TV, theatre and music. And in My Pitch, you’ll hear directly from a different Big Issue vendor each week, sharing their own story in their own words.
