Johnstone Press

Johnstone Press was a British media company known for publishing regional and local newspapers in the UK, particularly in Scotland and northern England. Founded in 1855, it played a significant role in local journalism and community news coverage. Over time, the company faced challenges due to the decline in print media and rising digital competition. In 2018, it entered administration and was subsequently acquired by a new owner, marking a significant shift in the landscape of regional publishing. Its legacy includes a commitment to local stories and community engagement through its publications.
