It remains a locally owned newspaper and will continue to be much more than simply words and pictures. The Herald has won a string of international, national and state awards, including the Victorian Country Press Association’s Overall Newsp
323aper Excellence Award.</p><p>The Herald&#8217;s 2018 wins at the VCPA awards included the awards for Best Photographic Study and Best News Story, as well as five high commendations and three commendations in the advertising, journalism and photography categories. This was followed up in 2019 with the Herald taking out the VCPA&#8217;s Overall Newspaper Excellence Award. We&#8217;re very proud of these achievements.</p><p>The journalism, photography and advertising awards which fill the Herald’s bulging trophy cabinet are proof that the Colac Herald is a shining light in regional Victoria’s media industry and guarantees our readers and advertisers get value for their money.</p><p>With news stories that focus on issues that matter to Colac and district, sports reports that embrace and acknowledge the achievements of our sportsmen and women, advertising tailored to the market, the region’s best real estate guide and a guaranteed readership, it’s obvious why the Colac Herald is Colac and district’s number one media outlet.</p><p>You&#8217;ll find the Colac Herald at <a href="https://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&amp;client=firefox-a&amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&amp;channel=s&amp;q=37-41+Bromfield+Street+Colac&amp;um=1&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=37-41+Bromfield+St,+Colac+VIC+3250&amp;gl=au&amp;ei=_btZTYi1DIKmcNzi0NIK&amp;sa=X&amp;oi=geocode_result&amp;ct=title&amp;resnum=1&amp;ved=0CBgQ8gEwAA" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">37-41 Bromfield Street, Colac,</a> can call us on 03 5231 5322 or email us via our <a href="https://colacherald.com.au/contact/">Contact Us</a> page.</p><p><a title="Colac Herald distribution" href="https://colacherald.com.au/advertising/distribution/">Click here to find out where to buy the Colac Herald.</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Colac Herald: Your News, Your Paper</strong></p></div></article><aside id="sidebar" class="hidden lg:block w-full w-sidebar-width space-y-8"></aside></section></div></main><section class="insta"><h3 class="text-center">
