The Arran Banner

Recently this has included debates on climate change, the state of Arran's roads and the proposed new ferry service to the island.

The entry reads: "The Arran Banner, founded in 1974, has a readership of more than 97 per cent in Britain’s seventh largest off-shore island".

In 2003, the Arran Banner was purchased by the Oban Times Group,[5] who continue to publish the newspaper today.

As well as continuing to produce the weekly edition of the newspaper the company are also responsible for a popular hand-drawn tourist map of the island and the annual Holiday Arran magazine.

In January 2024 all four websites belonging to Wyvex Media Ltd (The Arran Banner, Oban Times, Campbeltown Courier and Argyllshire Advertiser) were combined into one site called West Coast Today allowing paid for subscribers to have one subscription to access all the news content (website and digital e-editions) produced on the West Coast of Scotland .
