We’ve done it!🩸👏🏻💉

Last year, Highland News and Media and the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service launched Give Blood, Save Lives, our joint campaign to bring in 5000 blood donations across the Highlands and Moray by Easter.

Thanks to your incredible support, 5049 of you stepped up to donate. Together, you have potentially helped more than 15,000 individuals in need.

It’s a brilliant result and we want to thank everyone across our patch who has got on board - in and around Inverness, across Ross-shire, Sutherland, Caithness, Strathspey and in Moray.

The need doesn't stop here. Scotland’s patients need YOU. Give Blood, Save Lives.

The Highland's most experienced working journalist has died suddenly at his home in Inverness at the age of 76 after almost six decades working in newspapers.

Neil MacPhail was held in high regard by anyone who met him, whether it be professionally or personally, interviewing personalities and politicians and many of his colleagues, clearly shocked at his unexpected death, have queued to pay tribute to him.

His engaging wit and infectious giggle endeared him to everyone who worked alongside him, but it was his talent as a scribe which was most impressive. He covered all the biggest stories with accuracy, speed, fairness and compassion.

Neil's funeral is still to be finalised but details will follow and his fellow pen-pushers from across the country are expected to join family and friends in tribute to one of the north's finest.

Neil, you were some man. We will all miss you deeply.

Journalism is the “lifeblood of democracy” and publishers should have control over and seek payment for their work as AI technology continues to transform our economy and way of life, Sir Keir Starmer has said.

Starmer said his government would “always champion press freedoms” – which would include tackling SLAPPs deployed by the powerful to stop journalists publishing the truth – and warned that digital technology must not be allowed to erode press freedom.
