The Big Issue - 5 January 2026 : The January 5, 2026, edition of The Big Issue, titled "Paddington Lives!", uses the iconic bear's journey as a powerful metaphor for displacement and the search for safety in the modern world, coinciding with a hit musical adaptation and the approaching centenary of creator Michael Bond. This milestone issue officially kicks off the magazine's 35th-anniversary year, inviting readers to nominate local heroes for the "Changemakers of 2026" list and announcing a grand fundraising dinner hosted by Colin Murray to support vendors nationwide. Inside, readers will find deep-dive features on the UK's first cash-first food banks, a look at how digital ID policies are impacting the vulnerable, and practical New Year guides ranging from budget-friendly winter survival tips to essential advice for starting a running routine. By highlighting stories of resilience-from NICU dads to high-profile interviews-this issue reinforces the magazine's mission of providing a "hand up" while tackling the most pressing social challenges of the new year.
