The News, Portsmouth have launched a short video showing a day in the life of The News and the communities it serves.

The News have put together clips of their own events, as well as contributions by readers who helped us show the rich variety of life around the area.

From the christening of a ship to the finishing of an art project, from the visit of a Government minister to an appearance by Katie Price, all are included in the video.

It was one of many produced by Johnston Press newspapers around the country to mark June 21 – the longest day of the year – in celebration of our Summer of Love campaign, launched to try to try to reflect a new mood of optimism, create a renewed sense of confidence, celebrate what’s great about local life and boost business across our communities.

Editor Mark Waldron said: ‘The video is a great celebration of day-to-day life in this area.’
