About.
Grafter is a magazine for independent thinkers on all sides of the political spectrum. Aiming to encapsulate Britain today, it is a platform for people whose voices are often muted by mainstream media, those outside the bubble of London who are anything but the lowest common denominator. Grafter is a window into the real lives of fringe society; a mouthpiece for those with a lot to say but nowhere to say it until now.
​
In this first issue, the theme followed throughout is that of Britain's "crap places to live". Along our alternative tour of the nation we meet a political activist, a navy veteran and a squat photographer; each a unique and honest voice in the field of British creativity.
​
Grafter: the most interesting people are those you don't even know exist.
​
In June last year we released Grafter's print issue 1 which is now available as a digital magazine. In February of this year we released the first digital only Grafter magazine.
