STV Local is our site

Each site in the STV Local network is run by a professional community editor, which means you can trust everything you see and read. Our editors work from their areas, not from remote offices far out of town, which means we're closer to the community than most websites ever get.

What's more, STV Local is part of the STV family that has been serving Scotland for more than 50 years. Our editorial teams work at every level across Scotland to bring you up-to-the-minute news, sport and weather along with the best video, live and from our archives.

Want to get in touch? Your community editor's contact details are at the top of every page. Just drop them a line, or stop them in the street and say hi.

STV Local is their site

In partnership with local groups and organisations, STV Local brings you vital public information from your area. From school holidays and bin collections to crime statistics and traffic reports, we aim to cover everything that matters.

If you're interested in working with us on local data and information contact us now.
