Between us, we have amassed 445 years and counting of serving readers with the very best news, sport and features; trusted companions for all of life's ups and downs.

Our team of dedicated journalists, rooted in the communities in which we serve, cover the whole region, ensuring you don't miss a beat.

Times and tastes may change but our focus doesn't – delivering interesting, informative and light-hearted stories about Ayrshire to the people of this proud region.

Ayrshire is a region of wonderful contrasts – from the busy towns of Ayr, Irvine, Kilmarnock and Ardrossan to the rural, close-knit villages and hamlets – and our aim is to reflect daily life no matter where you live.

We love our coast and countryside as much as we passionately support our football teams – both professional and non-league – and we can't get enough of our vibrant food and drink scene.

In Ayrshire, if it matters to you, it matters to us.

So come and join us! We will always be by your side.
