This week’s paper is now available from all the usual outlets, and here.

This week’s front page features a story about an exciting new chapter for a famous Orcadian jewellery brand, as Ortak returns to its former headquarters at Kirkwall’s Hatston Industrial estate.

Also in this week’s paper:

• A special eight-page supplement full of reviews and photographs from last weekend’s Orkney Folk Festival.

• Previews of both the St Magnus Marathon and the St Magnus Festival, which will be held in Orkney later this summer.

• The candidates standing in Orkney in this month’s General Election discuss Scottish politics, isles independence, Brexit and more in our third week of election columns.

• The Vanguard disaster remembered — a programme of events is planned for July to make the centenary of the loss of a Royal Navy Battleship in Scapa Flow.
