The Catholic Herald is one of the most cost-effective Christian newspapers in which to place display advertising.

At £7.50 a column centimetre it is already less expensive than the heavily discounted rates of some of our competitors.

In addition, we publish 2 tabloid-sized annual supplements in Easter and Advent, both well-established platforms for advertisers.
