Launched in 1984, The Independent and The Mail newspapers are well established and known as newspapers "With the community at heart". They embody and embrace the communities they serve - and, at the same time, provide an attractive medium to carry advertisers' messages into households and business. From our peers over the past couple of years, both newspapers have received awards and commendations for journalism, photography, advertising campaigns and community service projects. We see the accolades as signposts to our commitment to community and family values. Company executives and staff are active in the promotion of regional events.
