The Highland Times is an independent news platform serving the Highlands, Islands, and beyond.
We are privately owned and maintained, built in the Highlands, and rooted in the communities we cover.
Our aim is simple, we provide free access to quality journalism without paywalls or barriers because we believe that news should inform, empower, and connect people, not exclude them.
We cover politics, community, culture, business, sport, and more.
Our focus is the Highlands and Islands, but our reach is national and international.
The Highland Times is professional in presentation, independent in outlook, and committed in purpose.
We are not owned by political parties, corporate interests, or billionaires, we are powered by integrity, local knowledge, and the voices of those who live and work here.

Our Contributors
The Highland Times publishes work from staff writers and contributors across the Highlands and Islands.
Some articles appear under pen names, a common practice in journalism, but every contributor is held to the same editorial standards.
Our main writers are Joseph Kennedy and Ronnie MacDonald, who cover politics, business, culture, sport, and community issues.
If you have a story to share, or an issue that deserves attention, we want to hear from you.
