More than £7 million has been spent through the Campbeltown's Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI) since 2009. The scheme saw over 40 buildings repaired, a number of derelict buildings brought back into use, and local contractors benefiting as the result of the projects.

A drop-in event to celebrate the initiative's success was held on Thursday, 7 July. The exhibition highlighted what has been achieved in the town to date and what is planned with assistance from the latest Conservation Area Regeneration Scheme (CARS).
Councillor Aileen Morton said: "The event was an ideal opportunity to celebrate the work undertaken in Campbeltown through the THI which has invested in Kintyre and the wider Argyll and Bute economy. We are grateful for the help of our partners Historic Environment Scotland and the Heritage Lottery Fund as well as the local community in making it happen."
