Dangerous dumpers beware A PRIVATE CREMATION - $2,750 includes GST -

ILLEGAL DUMPING was sadly a feature of Tweed’s longweekend, with authorities now urging residents to report offenders after items such as dangerous asbestos was dumped at Eungella on Friday, June 5.

Furniture, household rubbish and other waste has been found strewn across cane paddocks, roadsides, bushland and even outside the Murwillumbah Library.

Local firefighters said the Eungella dumping involving asbestos which represented a far more serious threat to public health and the environment.

Fire and Rescue NSW crews from Murwillumbah Station 391 were called to Eungella at about 11am.

Upon arrival, firefighters were quick to isolate the contaminated material and worked with the Fire and Rescue NSW Tweed Heads Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) unit and Tweed Shire Council to make the site safe and prepare the waste for disposal.

The incident has prompted renewed calls for residents to dispose of rubbish responsibly and to report anyone caught dumping across the Tweed.

“A friendly reminder to please dispose of all waste in a safe and legal manner,” Fire and Rescue NSW said.

The discovery has highlighted a growing problem across the Tweed, with illegal dumping becoming increasingly common in isolated areas where offenders believe they are unlikely to be seen.

Apart from creating an eyesore, illegally

dumped waste can contaminate waterways, threaten wildlife and impose significant clean-up costs on ratepayers.

The dumping of asbestos poses particular risks, as fibres released into the air can present serious long-term health hazards if disturbed.

Authorities are encouraging anyone who witnesses illegal dumping or has information about those responsible to report the matter to the NSW Environment Protection Authority through its Report Illegal Dumping (RID) online service.

Residents are also being urged to contact Triple Zero (000) immediately if they encounter suspicious or hazardous materials.

Firefighters contained the asbestos as authorities investigate who's responsible

Anyone with information relating to illegal dumping can lodge a report with the EPA via ridonline.epa.nsw.gov.au, while hazardous situations should be reported to emergency services on 000 (triple zero).

No soap in public loos A TWEED health worker is questioning why many public toilet blocks across the shire continue to operate without soap, warning the issue poses an unnecessary public health risk for residents and vis-itors. The health professional, who asked not to be named, said the absence of soap in public amenities is frustrating while travelling between communities as part of her work with families across the shire. “Handwashing is one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent the spread of illness, yet many council facil-ities provide only water,” she said, high-lighting what many of us learned during the COVID-19 pandemic. She said she recently stopped at the public toilets near the

start of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail in Murwillumbah and found there was no soap available.

She also claimed public toilets at Cabarita Beach and at the Cabarita Headland also lacked soap.

She believes the issue extends beyond a single location, recalling similar concerns at public toilets near the Kingscliff Visitor Information Centre.

She said the problem affected a wide range of people, including families, children, food handlers, tourists and recreational users of parks and beaches.

“Providing public toilets without soap falls short of basic hygiene standards and increases the risk of spreading infectious diseases,” she said.

“Surely providing soap in public amenities should be considered an essential service, not an optional extra.”

A spokesperson from Tweed Shire Coun-

cil said vandalism is playing a big role in the issue.

“Generally, council have attempted to provide soap in various forms across our public toilet portfolio at times,” council told The Weekly.

“We have trialled various heavy duty soap dispensers in certain facilities – however they are quickly vandalise and/or misused – becoming a significant maintenance burden for our staff and not financially feasible.

“We have tended to err towards providing smaller blocks of soap across our public toilet network - however these also go missing.

“We continue to monitor the market for viable options/heavy duty soap dispensers - and will trial them when they come onto the market.”

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made out of titanium, a biocompatible material surgically placed into the jaw bone. Dental Implants offer a secure solution to replace one or more teeth, providing a solid foundation for holding a crown, bridge, or denture.

They look, feel and function like natural teeth.

They are recommended to improve aesthetics, function (chewing) and speech. And they’re also easy to keep clean — just like your other teeth.

Shame we can’t change DST via Geoff’s bill

I personally would like to see the end of daylight savings (TVW, June 4, front page and page 3).

However, as this doesn’t look likely anytime soon, I agree with Geoff Provest MP that it should be reduced by eight weeks. It is still so hot and light, trying to put kids to bed at 8pm, especially as globally it’s getting hotter.

Catriona McKenna, Tweed Heads

Try living at the northern border NSW Government

It’s obvious that the NSW Labor government has not lived in a border community and had to cope with two time zones (TVW, June 4, front page and page 3).

I am disappointed that Tweed MP Geoff Provest’s bill has been rejected. Even if the change only stretched as far as Ballina, it would lessen the time that we have to think of the time whenever we crossed the border. After all it is pretty dark in April, no one is rushing home to have a barbeque!

Safe Haven cannot be replaced

I am writing with deep concern about the planned closure of Safe Haven services in Murwillumbah and Lismore in June due to a lack of ongoing funding.

I recently learned of the closure while completing a Wellbeing Plan at Safe Haven Murwillumbah. While alternative services were provided, the reality is that few can replace what Safe Haven offers.

Safe Haven is unique because it is free, accessible and available without appointments. People can walk in when they need support most. Mental health crises do not wait for referrals, appointments or the ability to pay for private care. Safe Haven provides immediate support at the moment it is needed, often preventing situations from escalating into emergencies.

93307 All Home 70x21cm

GAS & HOT WATER SPECIALISTS Electric, Gas, Solar & Solar Heat pumps Equally important is the welcoming, compassionate and non-judgmental environment created by staff. Many people who visit are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, isolation or suicidal thoughts. Being treated with kindness, dignity and understanding can make the difference between someone continuing to struggle alone or accepting help.

The benefits extend beyond individuals. By providing early intervention and support, Safe Haven strengthens families, reduces isolation, eases pressure on carers and helps prevent unnecessary presentations to hospitals and emergency departments.

Established following the devastating 2022 floods, the Murwillumbah and Lismore Safe Havens have become an essential part of the region’s mental health support network.

Their closure comes at a time when another important local service, Nullum House, is also closing due to funding shortages, creating an even greater gap in support for vulnerable community members.

The value of Safe Haven is also demonstrated through its outcomes.

Since July 2022, the four Safe Haven hubs have supported nearly 19,000 participants and delivered more than 18,000 hours of counselling.

I understand that 98 per cent of participants would choose Safe Haven over presenting to an Emergency Department, delivering significant savings to the health system while reducing pressure on hospitals.

On a personal level, Safe Haven has been life-changing. As someone who has struggled with mental health challenges, I can honestly say the staff helped save my life during a particularly dark period of depression.

Many people who rely on Safe Haven are on low incomes and cannot afford private mental health care.

Without this service, some will go without support until their condition deteriorates, while others may end up seeking help through already over-

stretched emergency departments.

At a time when mental health experts continue to call for greater access to support, it makes little sense to close a service that is clearly working. I respectfully urge you to do everything possible to secure ongoing funding and keep the Murwillumbah and Lismore Safe Havens open.

These centres are not an optional extra. They are a lifeline for many people in our community.

Thank you for taking the time to consider the impact this closure will have on vulnerable people across the region.

Michael Maloney, Murwillumbah

Excuse me EPA — on private wood burning

How rude of the Environmental Protection Agency EPA to lecture us on the environmental impacts of our humble wood burning heaters!

(Tweed Link, TVW, May 21).

In my fireplace we use only properly seasoned wood gathered from waste timber locations.

The chimney is cleaned each year, and the fire burns only when heating is required.

My chimney produces less emissions in one winter than burning the sugar cane within one kilometre of my house.

Considering the thousands of acres of cane in this valley burnt each year the emissions of smoke, particles and soot far exceed anything coming from a humble home wood heater.

Cane is not burned in North Queensland before harvest so why are we still burning? Cane farming is a crucial industry here and needs to continue for our economic survival.

I strongly support this industry.

P Mitchell, Urliup

Why I live where I live

Part One - Murwillumbah Since moving to Murwillumbah in 2012, I have come to appreciate what the town and surrounding villages have to offer and, with your indulgence of your readers, I have some

suggestions to make for the future.

I enjoy living near Frangela Drive Reserve with its views of the Cougals and its off-leash dog exercising opportunities. A greater variety of people would visit the reserve if there was a safer way of traversing the steep slopes and if the road entrance was improved. The Regent Cinema, M-Arts complex is forging ahead with its art studios, first class restaurant and other food and drink outlets, live music events and the increasingly popular “This Stuff Matters” talks. Locals wait expectantly for the screening of quality movies to be resumed.

Council has done a great job in making Knox Park attractive for young people in particular and the annual Kinship festival is a delight - actively promoting reconciliation.

More attention could be paid to a monitoring those who occasionally threaten personal safety in the park.

The incoming managers of the Community Centre need to address local homelessness issues.

The railway station area is booming with the advent of the Rail Trail. It is just a pity that we no longer have a rail service.

The Tweed Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Centre justifiably attract huge numbers of visitors and the Museum Regional Museum has been innovative in its programs. Some visitors from outside the region are disappointed to find the gallery closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

The Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre is a first class facility attracting a wide range of users. Parking is sometimes and issue during the swimming carnival season. The Showground is a hive of activity for RV visitors, for those supporting local food growers and enjoying live music at the Wednesday market, and attendees each year at the Murwillumbah Show. It is always sad to see the site inundated during each flood but thankfully, recovery is usually rapid.

The CBD has been improved with the recent restoration of roadside vegetation and the park-lets provided by council.

It would be great to see the main street evening foodie festivals revived and for art deco buildings to be illuminated in evenings when visitors are in town for the Art Trail, Clay Trail or Performing Arts festival.

Parking in the CBD is a continuing issue, exacerbated by the explosive event in council parking station. More proactive solutions should have been provided long ago. Another bridge over the river would ease current traffic issues at peak hour.

“Our people used trees, but we very rarely killed them. Trees are an important part of our culture.”

Council says most residents would never damage public trees, but those who do will face tough consequences under its Vegetation Vandalism on Public Land Policy.

Penalties can run into thousands of dollars and offenders may also be required to pay restoration costs.

For those responsible for the tree vandalism, council is planning replacements – they those trees die.

Replacing the poisoned trees comes at significant cost at for example the Tweed Heads Lawn Cemetery trees are expected to cost ratepayers about $5,000 alone.

“We know how much our community values these trees, because we’re hearing it loud and clear. If you’ve seen something, or you have footage that might help, please pick up the phone,” Mr Smith said.

Anyone with information can contact Council on (02) 6670 2400 or lodge a report online.

DELIBERATE ATTACKS on Tweed trees is on the rise and has angered many residents and prompted Tweed Shire Council to warn a “zero-tolerance approach will be applied to those responsible”.

Mature Norfolk pines have been poisoned and cut down at Cabarita Beach, while two old-growth gum trees near grave sites at Tweed Heads Lawn Cemetery have also been deliberately damaged, leaving them unlikely to survive, according to council.

The Weekly has also witnessed clearing of some beachfront trees at both Cabarita and Casuarina in past reports.

Council Manager Parks and Active Communities Murray Smith said there had been a worrying rise in vegetation vandalism.

“We’ve seen a real spike in this kind of damage, and every case is a loss the whole community wears,” Mr Smith said.

“A mature tree can take decades to replace. When someone destroys one, they’re taking something that belongs to all of us.”

Along the Cabarita Beach coastal walkway, two mature Norfolk pines were cut down and left at the site, while a slow-growing pandanus was destroyed nearby.

Two additional Norfolk pines on Palm Avenue were poisoned in recent weeks.

Similar damage was discovered at Tweed Heads Lawn Cemetery several months ago.

Cabarita Beach resident Rachel Maiden said the incidents had upset locals.

“Whoever did this clearly has their own interests at heart and doesn’t care about the community,” she said.

“This matters to everyone, not just because of how it looks, but because our native wildlife needs somewhere safe to live.”

Bundjalung Elder Uncle Franc said trees held deep cultural significance.

“Trees were important geographical features in our Songlines, landmarks you could see and travel by, the large figs especially,” he said.

Demands to extend Safe Haven

By Jonathon Howard

THE CLOSURE of the Safe Haven service in Murwillumbah this week and news that the Lismore Safe Haven will remain open for a further 12 months, has drawn strong criticism from local clients, many who fear Tweed’s most vulnerable are being abandoned.

The Weekly has been contacted by many current Safe Haven clients and concerned residents, most asking the same question: why has Murwillumbah Safe Haven not been extended?

For nearly four years, the Murwillumbah Safe Haven and three other temporary sites across the Northern Rivers have provided a quiet alternative to emergency departments for people experiencing distress, anxiety, trauma and other mental health challenges.

Some residents gathered to protest the closure of Safe Haven in Murwillumbah on Tuesday, June 9, in what they say is “abandoning” of those most at risk.

Safe Haven was established in the wake of the devastating 2022 floods and, according to data obtained by The Weekly, since July 2022, Safe Haven has provided counselling to 18,950 participants with 29,937 occasions of service.

Many of those who attended credited the service with saving their lives.

“Many have voiced that Safe Haven saved my life,” the outcome reports noted.

The impact extended well beyond individual stories.

Mental health emergency department presentations fell by 10 per cent after the service began operating.

There was a 16 per cent reduction in inpatient length of stay, while the program is estimated to have saved the health system $13.4 million annually.

Perhaps most telling is 98 per cent of participants said they preferred attending Safe Haven to presenting to an emergency department.

“Safe Haven saved my life.”

The average intervention cost of Safe Haven per client is $161, compared with between $700 and $800 for a single day in hospital.

During Cyclone Alfred in March 2025, Safe Haven staff were called into action, supporting recovery centres in Tweed, Lismore and Ballina.

They provided crisis counselling, psychosocial assessments and practical support to communities reeling from the disaster.

Staff dealt with trauma, grief, anxiety, housing insecurity, financial hardship and a rise in alcohol and drug-related presentations.

The service’s ability to rapidly respond to disasters highlighted the importance of flexible, community-based mental health care in floodprone regions.

In response to concerns about the closure, The Weekly put a range of questions to the NSW Government.

Residents want answers as to why Lismore Safe Haven has been extended by 12 months and not Murwillumbah

A response came from a NSW Health spokesperson who said the Safe Havens had always been intended as temporary services established after the floods.

“After the devastating flood events in Northern NSW in 2022, NSW Health worked with the local primary health network, Healthy North Coast, to establish four temporary pop-up Safe Haven clinics, including in Murwillumbah and Northern Rivers,” the spokesperson said.

“The pop-up Safe Havens have provided an alternative pathway to presenting to an emergency department for people experiencing suicidal distress and offer integral support to the Northern Rivers community during a challenging period.”

The spokesperson said the community was now entering a new phase of recovery.

“As the community continues to recover and more permanent local sources of mental health support are established, the pop-up Safe Havens will be closed, however the permanent Safe Haven in Tweed Heads remains open,” the spokesperson said.

“The pop-up Safe Havens will continue to support people until June 12, 2026.

“People who have been attending the pop-up Safe Havens have been provided with advice, support and information on other services they can access.”

NSW Health said Healthy North Coast would continue to operate Safe Haven Lismore for the next 12 months, while Northern NSW Local Health District was working with communities to ensure a range of mental health initiatives remained in place.

Those include the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program, dedicated disaster recovery clinicians, peer support through Farmgate Support and Towards Zero Suicides programs, aftercare services delivered by The Buttery in Lismore, the Alcohol and Other Drugs Hub in Nimbin, the Suicide Prevention Outreach Team in Lismore and the permanent Safe Haven in Tweed Heads.

Despite those assurances, some residents believe the loss of Safe Haven in Murwillumbah and the closure of

Nullum House represent a worrying reduction in face-to-face support at a time when demand remains high.

Unlike hospital emergency departments, Safe Haven offered anonymity and a welcoming environment staffed by trained clinicians, with stress levels among participants dropping by an average of two points following each intervention.

Its closure leaves behind more than statistics. For many, it leaves memories of a place where they found understanding, compassion and hope.

Rowan Robinson remembered

By Jo Kennett

Alleged mail theft

By Jonathon Howard

SATURDAY, JUNE 6, was the anniversary of the tragic death of much-loved Kingscliff man Rowan Robinson.

Rowan went to Kingscliff High School and was a keen surfer and member of Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club.

The following tribute comes from the Kingscliff RSL Sub-branch: “Today, we pause to remember and honour Sapper Rowan Jaie Robinson on the 15th anniversary of his death while serving Australia in Afghanistan.

On June 6, 2011, Rowan was tragically killed in action while serving with the Special Operations Task Group during operations in Afghanistan. He was just 23 years old.

Born in Wahroonga, New South Wales, Rowan joined the Australian Army in 2006 and quickly established himself as a dedicated and highly professional soldier.

Sapper Rowan Robinson

by all who knew him. Rowan embodied the very best qualities of service: courage, commitment, mateship, and selflessness.

Today, we remember not only the soldier Rowan was, but the son, brother, mate, and cherished family member he will always remain.

We reflect on the sacrifice made by Rowan, his family, and all those who have borne the cost of service to our nation.

While the years continue to pass, Rowan’s service and sacrifice will never be forgotten. His legacy lives on in the memories of those who knew and loved him, in the mates who served beside him, and within our local community.

It is fitting that the park that is home to the Kingscliff Cenotaph bears his name, ensuring that future generations will continue to see, remember, and reflect upon the sacrifice of a young Australian who gave his life in service to his country.

As our community gathers at the Cenotaph for commemorative services throughout the year, Rowan’s name remains a lasting reminder of the cost of freedom and the enduring importance of remembrance.

Lest We Forget.

“Those who served alongside Rowan remember him as a superb young man — fit, happy-go-lucky, and an exceptional team member” Following recruit training, he was posted to the 3rd Combat Engineer Regiment before transferring to the Incident Response Regiment in 2010. Afghanistan was Rowan’s second operational deployment, having previously served on Operation Slipper in 2007.

Those who served alongside Rowan remember him as a superb young man — fit, happy-golucky, and an exceptional team member. His professionalism, skill, and dedication belied his youth, while his easy-going nature and warm personality made him respected and admired

ALLEGED MAIL theft and letterbox tampering has been reported at Tweed Heads this month after a pile of discarded mail was discovered outside the Tweed Shire Council administration building on Sunday, June 7.

The Weekly received the below images from a concerned resident which shows a range of mail that had been sorted through and abandoned.

A little-known fact is that tampering with mail in Australia is no minor offence and can carry significant penalties under Commonwealth law.

According to the Australian Federal Police, offences involving the theft, concealment, damage or tampering of mail and letterboxes can attract penalties of up to five years imprisonment.

In fact, simply opening a mail receptacle without authority can carry a penalty of up to two years imprisonment.

The penalties become even more severe when mail is stolen. Theft of postage articles can attract penalties of up to 10 years imprisonment; while stealing or fraudulently appropriating postal articles can carry penalties of up to seven

years imprisonment.

Residents with home security cameras are encouraged to review footage if they suspect mail theft and report any evidence to police.

Authorities say mail theft is often linked to identity fraud, with offenders targeting bank statements, replacement cards and other documents containing personal information.

Victims are encouraged to contact their bank if they believe they have fallen victim to mail theft.

Anyone who witnesses suspicious activity should contact Tweed Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

If mail theft or tampering is suspected, incidents can also be reported to Australia Post or the Australian Federal Police.

Images of the alleged mail theft at council's Tweed Heads building over the weekend

Toilet soap a must Continued from page 3.

Mayor Chris Cherry said the lack of soap in the public toilets is an “oversight and will hopefully get remedied very soon”.

Mayor Cherry thanked the local health worker who raised the issue and is raising the matter with council staff.

“I have put a question to the staff on it, as it is a matter of public health,” The mayor said.

“No one wants to go into a public toilet and not be able to wash their hands with soap afterwards.

“I am curious about there being toilets with no dispensers at the basin and assume that perhaps the dispensers have been vandalised or removed and just have not been replaced yet but we will get onto it now that someone has reported it.”

A MAN has been charged with murder and a woman charged with allegedly hindering a police investigation following the death of a 34-year-old man in Tweed Heads on Saturday, June 6.

Emergency services were called to a home in Seaview Crescent about 2am following reports a man had been assaulted.

Police allege the 34-year-old was assaulted by a man known to him at The Hermitage, a street in Tweed Heads South, before being driven by a woman known to him to a property in Seaview Crescent, where he was left in the driveway.

NSW Ambulance paramedics attended the scene a short time later and treated the man, however he died at the property.

The 34-year-old father was allegedly bashed with a metal pole during a fight on the street at The Hermitage, Tweed Heads South, according to witness reports.

A witness told the media she heard yelling and screaming during the fight which went on for about 20 minutes.

Tweed/Byron Police said they were called at around 2am by residents who witnessed and heard the assault.

A man was allegedly heard screaming, swearing and smashing car windows on the street with the metal pole.

Police were then called to reports that a man had been found in the driveway of the home in Seaview Crescent.

The three knew each other, according to police, who said the deceased man lived in Seaview Crescent with his mother.

40 minutes after the assault, the man was found at his home less than one kilometre away.

“Unfortunately he had some fatal injuries and didn’t survive,” Tweed Police Detective Sergeant Gary Sheehan told the media.

Police at one of the two crime scenes in The Hermitage at Tweed Sth from Seven News

Officers attached to Tweed/Byron Police District arrested a 31-year-old man and a 29-yearold woman at a home on The Hermitage, Tweed Heads, before taking them to Tweed Heads Police Station.

Crime scenes were established at both locations as detectives commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.

Following inquiries, the man was charged with murder in a domestic violence-related matter, while the woman was charged with hindering the discovery of evidence relating to a serious indictable offence.

Police will allege the woman provided false information to officers about the assault.

The man was refused bail and appeared before Bail Division Local Court 1 (online) the next day, Sunday, June 7.

The woman was granted conditional bail and is scheduled to appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on June 29.

Investigations into the incident continue.

POLICE ARE investigating the alleged theft of a distinctive car taken from the Gold Coast which was last seen on Friday, June 5, in Tweed Heads.

The owner of the dark blue 2007 Ford Escape sedan, registration 798 IZ5, is urging members of the public to please keep an eye out for the car, which she says is easily recognisable due to its colourful stickers and rooftop tent.

“My car was stolen from Golden Four Drive in Bilinga,” the owner said.

“It was spotted last night (two days later on Friday, June 5) on William Street, Tweed Heads South.

“Any and all information would be much appreciated. She is very, very loved.”

The vehicle was allegedly stolen sometime between 9pm on Wednesday, June 3, and 5am on Thursday, June 4, from the Bilinga end of Golden Four Drive.

The owner said she last saw the vehicle on Wednesday at about 8.30pm after returning home from the movies.

“When I woke up the next morning and noticed it missing, the police were notified,” she said.

A breakthrough came the following night when a community member reportedly spotted the vehicle parked at William Street, Tweed South, and sent the owner video footage.

“At midnight the following day, a community member spotted the vehicle and sent me a video of it parked at William Street, Tweed South,” she said.

“The car was spotted with two men and one woman.

“One of the men was identified as tall, skinny, bald and had a face tattoo.”

The woman said the loss of the vehicle has had a significant impact on her daily life.

Council trivia Did you get last week's question right?

Answer: C is correct. Council’s flood monitoring cameras webpage was viewed 24,250 times during the recent rain event (Monday 18 May – Tuesday 19 May). Council has 13 flood monitoring cameras across the Tweed, strategically placed across key flood-prone sites. Images are refreshed every 15 minutes, allowing the community to check road closures, flood levels and impacts to better prepare for flooding.

Check them out for yourself at tweed.nsw.gov.au/ flood-monitoring-cameras Norfolk pines have shaped the Tweed Shire's coastline for generations.

Coastal trees destroyed in deliberate attacks Tweed Shire Council is asking for the community's help after a spate of deliberate damage to trees on public land across the Tweed.

In recent weeks, 2 mature Norfolk pines on the Cabarita Beach coastal walkway were cut down and left at the site, and a Pandanus, a slow-growing coastal species, was destroyed nearby. Two more healthy Norfolk pines on the road reserve at Palm Avenue, Cabarita Beach, were poisoned and are not expected to recover. A few months earlier, 3 established trees at Tweed Heads Lawn Cemetery were found dying from similar damage.

The Cabarita Beach walkway is one of the coast's best-loved public places, a path thousands walk and a prime surf-watching spot. The trees taken from it belonged to everyone.

"Whoever did this clearly has their own interests at heart and doesn't care about the community. This matters to the whole community, not just because of aesthetics but also to keep our native wildlife somewhere safe to be," Cabarita resident Rachel Maiden said.

Trees on public land do important work. They hold soil in place, protect the coast from erosion, provide homes for native wildlife, and give shade and character to the places people value. A mature tree can take decades to replace.

"Every case is a loss the whole community wears," Manager Parks and Active Communities Murray Smith said. "When someone destroys a healthy tree, they take something that belongs to all of us."

A part of who we are

Norfolk pines have shaped this coastline for generations. Colonial estates planted them as markers

visible to ships at sea, and fishermen relied on them as beacons to find their way home. They carry memory, too. Across Australia, communities planted Norfolk pines as living memorials to the soldiers who died in the World War I. The Tweed has its own at the Cudgen First World War Memorial Avenue on Collier Street, planted from 1918, where each tree bears the name of a local soldier who died.

For the Tweed's First Nations people, trees have held meaning far longer still. The palms along local waterways carry that history, their names taken from Aboriginal words for water carrier.

"Trees were important geographical features in our Songlines, landmarks you could see and travel by, the large figs especially. Our people used trees, but we very rarely killed them. Trees are an important part of our culture," Bundjalung Elder Uncle Franc said.

Help protect them

Caring for trees is part of Council's everyday work.

Since the 2022 floods, Council has replanted riverbanks and coastal land to hold soil and soften future floods. It is slow, patient work, which makes the deliberate loss of established trees all the harder to accept.

Council takes a zero-tolerance approach to vegetation vandalism under its Vegetation Vandalism on Public Land Policy. Penalties depend on the circumstances, the species, the location and the legislation that applies, and fines can reach thousands of dollars. Removing and replacing the poisoned trees at the cemetery alone is expected to cost ratepayers around $5,000.

Anyone with information can help. To report tree damage or suspicious activity, call Council on 02 6670 2400 or visit tweed.nsw.gov.au/report-problem

Council leads by example on single—use materials

A bin of plastics shows why Council is reducing single‑use items.

Tweed Shire Council has endorsed an updated Single Use Materials and Packaging Policy, choosing to lead by example through its own operations, activities and events.

The updated policy follows community consultation held earlier this year and reflects feedback from residents, businesses and event operators.

While there was strong community support for reducing single-use materials, Council also heard concerns about the practical challenges of making the change, including costs and the need for support to transition away from disposable items.

In response, Council has refined the policy to ease implementation, narrowing its scope so it applies only

to Council-run operations, activities and events. The policy does not currently extend to external events or markets held on Council land unless they are run

by Council.

By focusing first on its own activities, Council aims to demonstrate what works in practice, build experience and understand the real impacts before considering any broader application in the future.

The draft policy was publicly exhibited from 11 February to 25 March 2026, with feedback considered before the revised version was adopted at Council’s April meeting.

The policy will be reviewed in 18 months. Learn more and read the full policy tweed.nsw.gov.au/policies

Major upgrade to kick off at Blacks Drain, Residents invited to help boosting flood resilience for South Murwillumbah plan for future disasters A $2.56 million upgrade to the Blacks Drain crossing on Tweed Valley Way will begin on 15 June 2026, delivering a stronger, more reliable connection for the South Murwillumbah community.

The crossing has been repeatedly damaged during major floods, with washouts recorded in 1954, 2017 and 2022. The upgrade will replace the existing structure with a more durable, flood-resilient design better suited to the extreme weather events now affecting the region more often.

Local contractor Skeen Constructions will deliver the project. Funding includes $1.8 million through Essential Public Asset Restoration under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements and $413,000 in Betterment funding from the Regional Roads and Transport Recovery Package. Council will cover the remaining costs if additional disaster recovery funding is not secured.

during works, with access maintained at all times.

The upgrade builds on extensive flood restoration completed across the Tweed, including works on Scenic Drive, Reserve Creek Road, Limpinwood Road, Numinbah Road, Nimbin Road, Kyogle Road and Tyalgum Road.

For updates, visit yoursaytweed.com.au/blacks-drain

Join the conversation

Tweed residents can learn more about disaster risks in their region and share ideas either online from 5 to 30 June or in person at a free community drop-in session.

The upgraded crossing will include:

• a stronger concrete road surface designed to resist damage during floods • a safer, more durable pedestrian footpath • guardrails designed to fold down during floods and be quickly repaired after impacts • improved protection for the pavement and surrounding embankment.

The project forms part of a broader $9.39 million package of betterment and resilience works across the Tweed.

About 800 square metres of land on the eastern side of Blacks Drain will be acquired to support the new embankment and scour protection.

Construction is expected to take about 20 weeks, weather permitting. Traffic will be reduced to one lane

Residents across the Northern Rivers, including the Tweed, are invited to help shape a new plan to better prepare for future natural disasters.

The Northern Rivers is one of Australia’s most flood-prone regions and also experiences bushfires, storms, cyclones, heatwaves and coastal erosion.

These hazards are expected to become more frequent and more severe as the climate continues to change.

The NSW Reconstruction Authority is developing the region’s first multi-hazard Disaster Adaptation Plan.

The plan will identify actions to reduce risks from natural hazards where possible and help communities adapt where risks cannot be avoided. Some actions may be delivered in the short term, while others will need further investigation and be delivered over time.

Housing reforms hit like a grenade

By Jonathon Howard

TWEED RESIDENTS could soon lose the right to object to neighbouring developments, with Mayor Chris Cherry warning that under proposed NSW planning reforms, a neighbour could build a pool, entertaining area or other development beside a bedroom window without affected residents from having any say.

The concerns come as Tweed Shire Councillor Nola Firth described the State Government’s proposed housing reforms as a “grenade” thrown into the middle of council’s long-term planning strategy, warning they could undermine environmental protections and open the door to thousands of additional rural dwellings.

“Our draft Growth Management Housing and Employment Strategy has had an unexpected and highly concerning grenade land, especially in the rural housing section, in the form of the new proposed state housing reforms,” Cr Firth said.

The Greens councillor said the reforms could have consequences comparable to the coal seam gas battles that once threatened the Tweed’s environment, arguing the region now faces a similar threat through largescale development pressure.

According to Cr Firth, council staff have advised that the proposed reforms would make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to achieve the “net environmental benefit” currently required for rural housing developments.

She said recent council decisions

have already expanded housing opportunities across rural land, including larger allowances for secondary dwellings on properties of five hectares or more.

“a neighbour could build a pool beside a bedroom window without affected residents having any say” Combined with other changes, Cr Firth estimates the Tweed could eventually see around 2,500 additional rural dwellings, not including rural worker accommodation and changes to dwelling entitlement rules.

“We live in a World Heritage listed shire in the largest caldera in the Southern Hemisphere which has the highest biodiversity left in NSW,” she said.

“Here, where there is huge responsibility, we are looking at the possibility of open slather.”

Cr Firth attempted to remove the rural housing section from the draft Growth Management Housing and Employment Strategy until further clarity on the reforms was available, but her motion was defeated in a 3-4 vote.

Council’s Director of Planning and Regulation, Denise Galle, advised councillors that the proposed Targeted Assessment Pathway would significantly alter how low-rise housing developments are assessed, with many potentially bypassing traditional development application processes.

Mayor Cherry said while streamlining planning approvals was a worthy goal, the proposed reforms go too far by removing community input.

“The targeted assessment pathway is designed to bridge the gap between complying development and a full development application,” Mayor Cherry said.

“It seeks to put a Code or list of requirements in place that govern how low-rise developments can occur without having to go through a DA process.”

She said the reforms would remove opportunities for residents to have their voices heard on developments that may directly impact them.

“We have a lot of controls that aim to protect people’s views, their right to farm and their amenity — think your neighbour putting their pool and entertaining area right next to your bedroom window. With these changes you would have no say in that.”

Mayor Cherry also warned that environmental safeguards developed specifically for the Tweed’s unique landscape could be overridden by a standardised state planning code.

Under the current system, councils can impose conditions relating to tree clearing, bush regeneration, weed management, light pollution,

agricultural land protection and landuse conflicts. Cr Firth warned many of these controls could disappear under the proposed pathway.

“That means fast-tracking via targeted assessments, where public benefit and cumulative effects do not apply; reduced community exhibition and input; and Council’s ability to impose these tailored environmental requirements would be substantially reduced,” she said.

Cr Firth said the long-term impacts could include increased weed spread, pressure on waterways, domestic animal attacks on wildlife, introduced pests and the gradual fragmentation of agricultural land.

“What this means is thousandsmore people in the rural landscape and no way to manage and contain the impacts, many of which are not obvious and accumulate unwittingly over

time,” she said.

Mayor Cherry said Council’s draft housing strategy had already planned for significant growth, including more small-lot housing and rural housing opportunities, but with local oversight and community consultation built into the process.

“Under the GMHES we have planned to allow a lot more small lot housing and housing on rural lands but we wanted to put DA controls in place to ensure that the community and our environment was protected through that process,” she said.

“With these proposed changes Council and the community will not have a say.”

The NSW Government’s Targeted Assessment Pathway Discussion Paper is currently on public exhibition until June 24.

MEMBERS of the Murwillumbah Rowing Club will take to the Tweed River later this month to honour one of Australia’s greatest sporting pioneers and mark the 150th anniversary of a remarkable achievement that helped put the nation on the world stage.

On June 27, 1876, Edward Trickett became Australia’s first world champion in any sport when he defeated Englishman Joseph Sadler in the World Sculling Championship on London’s River Thames.

Standing 6ft 3½in (1.91m), the 24-year-old rowed the 4¼-mile (6.84km) course in an astonishing 24 minutes and 35 seconds to claim the title and spark celebrations back home.

According to his grandson, Gordon Trickett, between 25,000 and 30,000 people gathered around Sydney’s Circular Quay to welcome the champion home.

Born into a family that quarried sandstone

on Sydney Harbour, Trickett developed his strength and rowing ability transporting stone by boat with his brothers. By 17 he was winning regattas and went on to hold the world title for four years.

His great-granddaughter, Murwillumbah Rowing Club member Helen Albury, has helped keep his legacy alive for the past 12 years.

“Members row the distance he rowed to win the championship, 4¼ miles or 6.84 kilometres on the Tweed River,” she said.

Mrs Albury recently joined relatives in Sydney for the Edward Trickett NSW Grade Championships, where specially minted medals bearing his image were presented to winners.

On Saturday, June 27, Murwillumbah Rowing Club members will once again row the historic distance before gathering at the clubhouse to celebrate the 150-year anniversary of Australia’s first sporting world champion.

A SPLASH of pink, a fresh haircut and a whole lot of heart are coming together in Coolangatta this month, with the team at Meta Saloon Barbers & Beauty throwing their support behind the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Located at 64 Griffith Street, next door to Ghanda Clothing on the mezzanine level, the award-winning salon is hosting a series of “Go Pink” fundraising days every Monday throughout June, with owner Glen “The Scotsman” and stylists Skye and Simone donating their time and talents to the cause.

From 9am to 3pm on Mondays June 15, 22 and 29, Glen will be performing head shaves for brave supporters, while the girls will be creating stylish bob and pixie cuts for women, along with adding a touch of pink colour for those wanting to show their support.

While a minimum donation of $15 is recommended, some generous locals have already contributed as much as $50.

The idea for the fundraiser came about when stylist Simone overheard a conversation with a

client named Skye and suggested turning the salon pink for an entire month.

“We thought, why not do head shaves, short cuts and pink sprays every Monday, all for a great cause,” Glen said.

“We look forward to seeing everyone and thank the community for getting behind us.”

Meta Saloon is renowned for its European-inspired atmosphere, international award-winning stylists, blonde specialists, in-house cold brew coffee bar, hair extension wall and exclusive swimwear brands Seawitch Swimwear and Jessika Rabbit Swimwear and also readings by Shae.

The salon is open seven days a week and has plans for a charity fashion show and catwalk event in the coming months.

Those wishing to support the fundraiser can visit Meta Saloon Barbers & Beauty at 64 Griffith Street, Coolangatta, or phone 0408 760 461 or 0460 356 047.

Donations can also be made via the fundraiser via a QR code which is in-store.

This June, the message from Glen, Skye and Simone is simple — Go Pink and help make a difference.

Bedzzz Tweed Heads is celebrating 24 years in business this year. Originally opened by Chillingham local Allison Cramp in 2002, husband Jaime took over in 2003 when their family grew to three.

After helping Jaime behind the scenes for a few years, Allison now has a career as a primary teacher, and Jaime runs the business alongside long time Sales Associate, Vivienne.

Bedzzz prides itself on being the only local, independent bedding store on the Tweed and they’re passionate about providing good old-fashioned customer service.

The store has a long connection with locals through

sponsoring sporting teams and schools. They also helped out during the floods by donating a couple of truckloads of mattresses to those in need.

“I still enjoy coming to work every day!” says Jaime, “ Particularly now that we specialise in adjustable beds, as we really get to see great results for our customers.”

Bedzz is famous for its 30 Night Comfort Guarantee, so if you buy a new mattress and you’re not happy with it, you have 30 nights to exchange it for another.

Another reason why Bedzzz has been trading for 24 years and will still be here in another 24.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals ELDERS TWEED VALLEY is more than just a successful real estate business – it’s a family enterprise deeply rooted in the Tweed and driven by a commitment to helping local families build wealth and achieve their goals.

Born and raised in the Tweed, couple Craig and Rebecca Dudgeon have built a business that reflects their strong local values.

Alongside their children, Alyssa and Hunter, who are also getting involved, the family continues a proud tradition of small businesses making a lasting difference.

The Dudgeons are also beef cattle farmers and major local employers, with more than 20 staff and contractors working across their various businesses.

Their focus is not just on property transactions, but on partnering with clients throughout their journey and helping create long-term economic opportunities.

Rebecca, the General Manager of Elders Tweed Valley, is often described as the foundation that keeps the

family team strong and thriving. Her local knowledge and dedication have played a key role in the business’s success.

Craig brings true grit to the families businesses having established and grown several ventures over the past two decades and launching Elders Tweed Valley in 2018, he set out to create something special.

Since opening its doors, the agency has risen to become the number one real estate office in Murwillumbah, a testament to Craig’s dedication and the experienced, positive team he has assembled.

For local couple Kyle Lucas and Olivia Kirk, and their toddler, owning a butcher shop is about much more than selling quality meat - it's about family, community and building a future together.

The young couple recently took ownership of Sunnyside Meats in Murwillumbah, turning a long-held ambition into reality while raising their young daughter and balancing the demands of family life with small business.

For Kyle, the move to ownership was the culmination of years of dedication.

After leaving school, he joined Sunnyside Meats under former owner Todd Shadbolt and spent eight years learning every aspect of the trade.

Today, Kyle and Olivia lead a team of 12 dedicate staff members whom they describe as one big family, united by a commitment to quality products and friendly service.

Much of the meat sold through Sunnyside Meats comes from nearby farms, including beef from Tyalgum, pork from Bakers Road and chicken and lamb sourced from across the nearby Queensland border.

“We’re trying to keep it local,” Kyle said.

“Most of what you see in the display is made in house by the team at Sunnyside Meats ranging from sausages, rissoles, crumbed products and oven ready meals.”

For the couple, one of the most rewarding aspects of ownership is the opportunity to become part of customers’ everyday lives.

“We like being part of the local community and supporting the local farmers. There is also the sense of familiarity with customers, their names and what they like,” Kyle said.

“On top of that it is also rewarding to know the shop plays a part in everyday life, whether it’s helping with a family meal or a weekend barbeque.”

Kyle and Olivia are proving that family, hard work and community connections remain the ingredients for a successful local business.

For Scott and Sarah Reading, real estate has always been a family affair. Born and raised in Murwillumbah, the couple took the helm of First National Real Estate Murwillumbah in 2017, carrying forward a family business with deep roots in the region and a genuine love for the place they call home.

Now in its third decade, the agency remains one of Murwillumbah’s most trusted names, and that trust is built on people. Scott and Sarah have grown a team that feels less like staff and more like extended family, where local knowledge runs generations deep.

Scott & Sarah Reading scott.reading@fnmurwillumbah.com.au

What truly sets the agency apart is just how local that team is. The sales team is proudly made up of two husband and wife teams, while the rest of the office is drawn from some of the area’s most established local families: Besgrove, Campbell, Wise, Alexander, Anderson, Donoghue and Penfold families among them. These are names Murwillumbah locals know and recognise, people who grew up here, raised their families here, and are genuinely invested in the community they serve.

It’s this combination of family values and deep local connection that clients feel the moment they walk through the door. For Scott, Sarah and the team, every client is treated like a neighbour, because more often than not, they are.

With roots planted firmly in the community and a team that treats every family like their own, First National Real Estate Murwillumbah continues to build on its legacy, one home, one family at a time.

Drug driving plans welcomed Join the flood drill in July LOCAL USERS of medicinal cannabis have welcomed the Minns government move to decriminalise its use for drivers on an unrestricted license, although commercial drivers and ‘P’ and ‘L’ plate drivers will be exempt from any changes.

The government plans to introduce a three-strike approach for registered medicinal cannabis users, recognising some drivers may test positive to THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) despite using their medication lawfully and responsibly.

The Coalition has vowed to oppose the legislation but if it passes, drivers will have to enrol as registered medicinal cannabis users, provide proof of a prescription and complete an online education program about cannabis and driving safety.

One Tweed Coast resident who previously used medicinal cannabis before it was legalised to manage a chronic illness, welcomed the move.

“For people with a chronic illness in chronic pain it’s a really efficient drug,” the woman, who didn’t want to be named, said.

“It’s better than mainstream medication because they can come with side effects and they are often highly addictive.

“It was just a really efficient way of managing pain and helping people who have, for instance, an illness where they can’t eat, to help manage appetite so you can actually eat.

“That’s why I used it; I dropped to 42 kilograms and wasn’t eating because I couldn’t eat.”

The woman, who has now recovered from her illness and stopped using medicinal cannabis, said it was “terrifying” driving when she was using it because she feared losing her licence.

“The whole point of medication is to give you a better quality of life,” she said.

“If they are effectively saying, ‘We will prescribe it to you but you can’t drive,’ that increases isolation which reduces quality of life, so the change is good because it’s promoting quality of life.

“If you have that fear of driving it just makes an already difficult situation more difficult.

“People with a chronic illness are usually already socially isolated.

“It will allow people to be mobile and get out of the house without worrying about losing their licence and there are so many things that come with that, like losing your job and your money and potentially your home.

“If you have a chronic illness you have to buy things for that.

“I think it’s a great thing, finally, that they are trying to change that.”

Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin said locals have raised the issue with her for years and she has backed them on it.

“For too long, people using prescribed medical cannabis have faced the risk of losing their licence despite following medical advice,” Ms Saffin said.

“We’re changing that with world-leading reforms that put fairness and evidence first.”

Under the new system, registered medicinal cannabis users will still be roadside drug tested.

If a driver returns a positive roadside test, they will continue to receive an immediate 24-hour driving ban while the sample is sent for laboratory testing.

If the laboratory result shows THC below the maximum threshold there will be no charge or further action.

If the laboratory result shows THC at or above the threshold, the driver will receive

Premier Chris Minns and MPs supporting the move meet with users of medicinal cannabis

a warning letter for a first or second detection within two years. The government says this will give drivers the opportunity to adjust their dose and driving behaviour after medicine use.

A third detection above the three-strike threshold within the two year period will result in penalties, including a fine of $704 and a minimum three-month licence suspension.

If the driver has alcohol present, or the lab result shows multiple illicit drugs, or any drug other than THC, the driver will face the standard drug driving offence.

The Greens say they support the “longfought for” reform, which Greens MP and drug harm reduction spokesperson Cate Faehrmann tried to get through in 2021. It was subject to an inquiry but voted down in 2022.

There are around one million medicinal cannabis users in Australia, with up to a third (over 300,000) estimated in NSW and growing, with the number of cannabis medicines dispensed each month in NSW almost doubling in a 12 month period.

The Labor Party controls the lower house but the government would have to win over some cross-benchers in the upper house to see it passed.

PACIFIC BITUMEN

RESIDENTS ARE being encouraged to take part in a major flood recovery drill in Murwillumbah next month aimed at strengthening the town’s preparedness for future natural disasters.

The exercise, hosted by the M|CORE, will take place on Saturday, July 4, at Jessie McMillan Hall beside St Andrews Presbytery Church in Wollumbin Street.

The community-based simulation will recreate a post-flood recovery effort, giving volunteers and residents the chance to experience how a local emergency recovery hub would operate following a major weather event.

The pop-up recovery hub will begin with volunteer setup and briefings from 8am, before opening to the public at 10am. The hub will operate until 3pm, followed by pack down and a final debrief at 4pm.

M|CORE is encouraging locals to participate in a range of realistic roles throughout the day, including acting as residents seeking assistance after a flood, registering as spontaneous “mud army” volunteers, or requesting support such as clean-up assistance and equipment loans.

Organisers say the interactive format will help test real-world systems, improve coordination between agencies and volunteers, and strengthen community preparedness across the Tweed.

As part of the exercise, M|CORE will also trial its Monday. com Emergency Response platform, with some volunteers expected to receive simulated activation emails in the lead-up to the event.

“These messages are part of the drill and no action is required unless participating,” organisers said.

A community barbecue trailer will operate throughout the day to provide food for volunteers and create a welcoming environment for residents to learn more about local resilience efforts and connect with community leaders, including street coordinators.

Representatives from local emergency services and other organisations involved in the region’s recovery and resilience network are also expected to observe the exercise, providing an opportunity to strengthen collaboration and share learnings.

For more information, contact Katrina from M|CORE on 0402 700 223.

New coffee hub

now open at iga tweed valley

Mon - Fri 5am - 4 pm sat 6am - 1pm CUSTOMERS CAN now enjoy their morning sun 6am - 12pm brew and complete their grocery shopping all in one place, with IGA Tweed Valley unveiling a dedicated new coffee shop at one of the valley’s most popular shopping destinations.

IGA Tweed Valley manager Mark Pettit said the new coffee bar was another way the team could enhance the customer experience.

“The new coffee spot adds another element to what we do and gives customers another reason to visit,” Mark said.

“It’s all about creating a great experience and making IGA Tweed Valley a destination where people can grab a quality coffee and do their shopping at the same time.”

At the heart of the operation is a family team passionate about great coffee, drinks, extras and customer service.

Professional barista Kate Chisholm works alongside her daughter, trainee barista Lalia Chisholm, who bring a warm and welcoming touch to the new venture.

Using premium Campos beans, the coffee shop also offers customers the opportunity to purchase beans in-store, with grinding available to suit individual preferences.

Mark said supporting local businesses had also been an important part of the project.

The fit-out was completed by several local trades and businesses, including Daniel Grey Plumbing, Luffy’s Glass, Mako Roller Doors and Print Spot did great work on the signage.

We also had minor flooding at the Showgrounds couple of weeks ago, so we had to operate as reduced only Shop & Go market due to the limited parking. We all hope we can soon enter the dryer Winter season!

We’re happy to have back Byron Bay Peanut Butter, Tempeh Temple, Thrive Natural Remedies and Cheeses Loves You after the rainy May. We thank all our costumers for showing up to support our local farmers despite the rain and mud,

and we love to see your dedication each and every week! We still recommend bringing your gum boots for the coming markets if the weather stays wet, as the ground will be filled with puddles.

Despite the rain, especially our pecan farmers from Tweed River Pecans have been busy collecting fresh pecans this month. At present you can find these lovely treats alternating weeks from Byron Spice Palace and Daphne’s Pantry’s stalls.

Last week Kaye also came and did a pecan presentation where she bought the special tool called Nut roller to demonstrate how you can pick pecans especially when the orchard is too wet for the tractor.

There were some tastings on offer too!

GENTLE. LOCAL. TRUSTED

FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot says she is “appalled” by the Win Television decision to halve NBN News weeknight bulletins and axe weekend editions entirely from June 27, saying it will severely affect the community’s access to local news.

The news came after WIN Television completed the purchase of NBN Television from Nine Entertainment on June 2.

From June 27, a 30-minute locally produced bulletin will air Monday to Friday at 5:30 pm, replacing the existing one-hour program.

Nine News will follow at 6 pm. Weekend bulletins will be discontinued and replaced by Nine News at 6 pm across Northern NSW. “I’m appalled by the decision of the WIN Network (which has just bought NBN News from the Nine Network) to take a wrecking ball to our local NBN News service,” Ms Elliot wrote online.

“From the end of this month, we will be shown Sydney’s Nine News at 6pm instead of our long-running local NBN News.

“NBN News will be shortened to a 30-minute bulletin at 5:30pm — and completely axed on weekends. “Local jobs and our community’s access to news will be severely affected.

“NBN News is consistently the highest-rating TV programme in our region, and has held strong in the digital era. In fact, it regularly has higher ratings than capital city bulletins in Adelaide and Perth. Last year, NBN News actually posted a 14% increase in total viewership - and an increase of 33% among under-40s - as locals turn to trusted sources for real news.

“Hundreds of thousands of us tune in to NBN every night at 6pm. For decades, NBN News has been us.

“We need quality local journalism to tell our stories. Without it, we lose one of our biggest voices. Just look around your social media feed

NBN News cuts shock

There are big changes coming to NBN news

- in an era where social media is full of fake news and AI, real local news is more important than ever.

“I call on the WIN Network to reverse this decision and back our local news.”

“real local news is more important than ever” A WIN spokesperson told Media Week that the changes will result in “an extended 90 minutes of local, national and international news coverage each weeknight”.

WIN says the new half-hour format will have more local content than the current hour-long bulletin, which has local, national, and international stories.

The spokesperson told Mediaweek that a new control room will be built at the NBN Studios in Newcastle, with the bulletin produced locally rather than from Brisbane.

The network said it was also exploring opportunities to expand news content to digital platforms.

NBN News will continue to be presented from Newcastle, with journalists and camera operators based across Northern NSW and the Gold Coast.

NBN News has served Northern NSW for over 60 years and has consistently high ratings. NBN staff are said to be concerned about job losses.

SWELL Festival sets up Discover White Light Expo in Murwillumbah

By Rada Campbell

SWELL SCULPTURE Festival has established a year-round presence in Murwillumbah, bringing internationally recognised artworks, creative programming and new opportunities for local artists to the Northern Rivers.

The Gold Coast-based arts organisation has become a Company in Residence, marking a significant step in strengthening cultural connections between the Tweed and the Gold Coast. The move includes the installation of major sculptural works and a planned program of artist talks, workshops, masterclasses and creative events over the next 12 months.

Founder and artistic director Natasha Edwards said the decision was driven by a shared philosophy of connecting people, art and place.

“M|Arts felt like a natural fit from the moment we started the conversation,” Natasha told The Weekly.

“The precinct has become a vibrant creative hub that brings together artists, makers, businesses and the community in an authentic and accessible way.”

The residency places SWELL alongside some of the region’s most important cultural institutions and creates new opportunities for collaboration across the Northern Rivers.

“We hope it creates opportunities for collaboration, professional development and artistic exchange,” Natasha said.

“SWELL has spent more than two decades building networks across Australia and internationally, and we would love to share those connections with artists and creative practitioners in the region.”

Among the works now on display is The Hermitage by Chilean-born artists Juan Pablo Pinto and Cristian Rojas, a giant steel can exploring Australia’s housing crisis and ideas of home and belonging.

Visitors can also experience Links by Mike

Van Dam, created from hundreds of individually welded marine-grade chain links, and Vaclav Horacek’s illuminated The Enigmatic Pufferfish Spirit, inspired by the Mike Van Dam's sculpture Links skeletal structure of a pufferfish.

Another standout work is Emily Hastie’s New Dawn, New Day, a sculpture celebrating optimism, renewal and the promise of new beginnings.

Unlike large outdoor exhibitions, Natasha said the indoor setting allows audiences to engage more deeply with the artworks.

“At M|Arts, visitors can slow down, observe details, textures and craftsmanship, and spend time with the work,” she said.

As preparations continue for the 2026 SWELL Sculpture Festival in September, the residency is helping build stronger relationships with artists, organisations and audiences across both sides of the border.

“The Tweed and the Gold Coast have always shared a strong cultural connection,” Natasha said.

“This residency creates a bridge between the two regions, strengthening opportunities for artists, audiences and creative businesses.”

Together, the sculptures explore themes ranging from housing and human connection to renewal, resilience and the way we experience everyday objects, highlighting the diversity of contemporary sculpture today.

SWELL sculptures are now on display at M|Arts Precinct, 105 Wollumbin Street, Murwillumbah. Admission is free. More info at swellsculpture.com.au

RESIDENTS ARE invited to experience a range of alternative therapies, spiritual guidance and holistic wellbeing at a special White Light Expo at Murwillumbah Services Club on Saturday, June 20.

The one-day event, to be held in the River Room, promises a fun and informative atmosphere, with exhibitors showcasing crystals, books, CDs and a range of healing modalities, while visitors can also experience various treatments and attend educational talks.

Event organiser Adrian Moore said the expo had remained popular because it provided people with a safe and welcoming environment to explore different aspects of health and wellbeing.

“White Light Expos are your place for information and products to enhance your life and wellbeing,” Mr Moore said.

“Not only can people try various treatments, often at markedly reduced prices, but they can also learn from the many lectures held over the weekend which give further insight into a more rewarding, healthier you.”

Entry remains just a gold coin donation, with exhibitor inquiries also welcome.

Mr Moore said the expo offered opportunities for people seeking guidance through ancient practices such as numerology, tarot and astrology.

“There is also the possibility of learning about three ancient sciences in Numerology, Tarot and Astrology, as practitioners of these subjects travel with the Expo to enlighten those who seek answers,” he said.

“Of course, we also have a dedicated and professional group of psychics, clairvoyants and mediums at each of our expos.”

Kerry

Michelle

Nitya

Among the experienced readers attending will be Joan Boler, who has more than 35 years’ experience and combines palmistry, tarot, clairvoyance and mediumship.

Kerry Nijam, also with more than 35 years’ experience, offers readings and answers to specific questions.

Michelle will provide tarot readings using Titania’s Fortune cards, while Nitya, originally from Scotland, brings more than 20 years of experience as an energy healer, empath, psychic, channel and crystal healer.

Mr Moore said the readers collectively possessed more than 100 years of experience.

The White Light Expo will run throughout the day at Murwillumbah Services Club, with organisers promising plenty of information, inspiration and community spirit.

WITH THE 2026 sugar cane harvest scheduled to commence on June 15, cane growers and millers certainly don’t want the showery conditions to persist.

A crop of at least 440,000 tonnes is expected this year, if favourable weather prevails, and the prediction of a developing El Nino weather system could mean good weather for harvesting this Spring.

A photographic exhibition titled ‘Cane Spirit’ will soon be displayed at the Condong Post Office and General Store, An incredible collection of photos by photographer and members of the public are invited John Partland in the 1950s and '60s will go on display to view the historic scenes of sugar cane harvesting and farming captured in the Unfortunately, much of the district’s excellent 1950s and ‘60s era. soybean crop has been lost due to the inability Amateur photographer Mr John Partland, to harvest because of the very wet ground conhimself a well-known local canegrower has put ditions over the last several weeks. together a very interesting collection depicting Like all grain and pulse crops the harvest sugar cane harvesting prior to the introduction window is quite narrow, so good weather is of mechanical harvesters. critically important.

This is a positive in the current year, when artificial nitrogen fertilizer prices are very high and supply severely limited.

It would be great if Australia produced a significant amount of biofuel, as happens in other countries. This would give us self-reliance in the production of food and fibre. However, this would require a long-term strategy and government initiative.

Our industry and district have been shocked and saddened by the recent and sudden passing of our much-loved and respected Condong Mill Manager, Mr Phil Scroope. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

IT’S HARD not to be impressed by the resurrection of Manly after going none from four to currently sit fourth and have won seven out of their last eight.

The ‘Fozball’ may not be a real concept or thing, but there is no denying the impact he has had on the Eagles since he took over.

The fact he has been given the head coaching role was a no-brainer.

The Titans had a great win over the big brother from up the road with Keano Kini scoring the individual try of the season to get the Titans home.

The Broncos have gone back to back losses now against lowly ranked teams with alarm bells ringing at Red Hill for sure.

The Origin period won’t help them with Haas and the enigmatic and erratic Reece Walsh being added for game two.

Plenty of questions being asked of Billy in his decision making around Walsh who was left out of game one and has been underwhelming since.

Nevertheless, he is a game breaker and that might be what Slater wants as the Maroons head to Melbourne to try and save the series.

Some interesting changes from both states for game two in what shapes up to be a beauty.

The Tigers started the season with such promise but have now won only one of their last five and all four of those losses they conceded over 40 points in what is a concerning trend currently. 68 points is massive in any competition but at the NRL level it is insane.

They will pack Leichardt out this week with the final NRL competition game being played

Turtle Tears at Slow Books

By Madeleine Murray

BEST-SELLING AUTHOR Megan Albany has written a complex and thought-provoking children’s book called Turtle Tears.

The proud Kalkadoon woman and former Weekly journalist will launch Turtle Tears at Slow Books in Murwillumbah on Saturday, June 13.

Megan spoke to The Weekly about grief, butterflies, and bookstores.

Why is the book called Turtle Tears?

“I came across a beautifully poetic, natural phenomenon, where turtles in South America cry, and then butterflies fly down and drink their tears.

“It made me think about how important it is to share your tears with others. I love the metaphor of how grief and sadness can become almost airborne when they are shared.”

What moved you to write the book, and make it a children’s book?

“I wrote Turtle Tears because I realised that in Western culture, grief is not talked about very much, especially around children. But children feel grief even if we try to relegate it to ‘adults only’ conversations.”

Have you had a lot of sadness in your family and life?

“I have personally lost a lot of friends and family and spent more than my fair share of time in palliative care wards. While there is always grief, there is also a kind of beauty in sitting with someone at the end of their life and realising what that person means to you.

“We are particularly blessed in the Tweed to have Wedgetail Retreat and the Palliative Care Op Shop which provide incredible palliative support for families in our region.

“I had the privilege of spending a lot of time at

Megan wrote the best-selling The Very Last List of Vivian Walker. Her new book is Turtle Tears

Wedgetail Retreat when a very dear friend was in palliative care there, so I will be donating a copy of Turtle Tears to Wedgetail for families staying there who want to find a way to open up a conversation with their children about grief.”

Why are you launching it in a book store?

“I am very excited to be launching Turtle Tears at Slow Books in Murwillumbah. When I first moved to this area there was a book store. Everyone in my writer’s group was devastated when it closed, so it’s fantastic to see a book shop open again in town.

“This is my way of saying thank you to Slow Books for their efforts in making sure the Tweed remains a region of book readers. They also have a fantastic little tea and coffee shop which is great as who can read a book without a cup of tea in their hand?!”

Megan will launch Turtle Tears from 1pm-3 pm on Saturday, June 13, at Slow Books, 35 Wharf Street, Murwillumbah.

Annual mullet run is on 4 Minjungbal Dr Tweed Heads South NSW

THERE IS plenty of action in the ocean at the moment, with whales and dolphins everywhere, and the annual mullet run has also begun.

The autumn migration sees massive schools of adult mullet leave estuaries and travel north along the Northern NSW coastline to spawn.

These photos here were taken by Gary Sutton, the eye in the sky from Seascape Trawler Watch, of mullet in the Tweed River.

The run is triggered by falling water temperatures, strong westerly winds and moon phases (new and full moon), peaking between April and June but it started late this year because of all the strong southerly and onshore winds and warm water.

The days leading up to the new and full moon see plenty of water movement causing the strong currents which force thousands of fish out of river mouths and sheltered bays, hugging headlands and beaches and trying to not get eaten.

Arnhem Land films Small Works take shape

By Madeleine Murray

By Rada Campbell

TWO POWERFUL DOCUMENTARIES filmed deep in Northeast Arnhem Land will bring one of Australia’s most contested political legacies into sharp focus when they screen at The Regent, Murwillumbah, on Sunday, June 21.

Filmmaker Sinem Saban will present backto-back screenings of her award-winning films, which examine the long shadow cast by the Northern Territory Intervention and its continuing impact on Aboriginal communities nearly two decades later.

In 2007, the Howard Government introduced the Northern Territory Intervention, a sweeping package of laws that placed Indigenous communities under federal control while suspending the Racial Discrimination Act. The repercussions of those decisions remain the subject of fierce debate.

The centrepiece of the afternoon is Luku Ngärra: The Law of the Land, which sold out when it screened in Murwillumbah three years ago.

Filmed over five years in Northeast Arnhem Land and born from a 16-year friendship, the documentary offers rare access to Yolngu life through the story of the late Rev Dr Gondarra, OAM – a respected clan leader, traditional lawman, spiritual leader and civil rights advocate who spent five decades campaigning for justice and self-determination.

Far from a conventional talking-head documentary, Luku Ngärra unfolds through vivid ceremonial footage, striking landscapes and candid conversations, accompanied by music from Yothu Yindi, Mau Power, Yirrmal and Gawurra.

“The wisdom and reverence of this incredible man and his people will deeply affect you for the rest of your life, as they have mine,” Sinem said.

The film challenges audiences to reconsider

SMALL WORLDS Sculpture Prize is preparing to transform M-Arts Precinct into an intimate showcase of regional sculptural talent, with the inaugural exhibition opening next month alongside the Lava Arts Festival.

Running from June 20 to July 4, the exhibition will feature works by emerging and established artists from across the Northern Rivers and Gold Coast, exploring themes of landscape, ecology, identity and place through contemporary sculpture.

Presented by the Trackways Sculpture Trail Committee, the exhibition focuses on smallscale sculptural works designed as conceptual stepping stones toward larger outdoor installations.

Curator Annie Long said the exhibition was about creating space for experimentation while supporting sculptors at different stages of their practice.

“The idea is that these small works have the potential to evolve into future large-scale outdoor pieces,” she said.

Opening night will take place on Friday, June 19 at 6pm, with guests invited to meet artists and celebrate the announcement of the $2,500 Small Worlds Sculpture Prize winner.

The prize will be judged by Samantha Collyer-Moss, artistic director of the Brunswick Nature Sculpture Walk, with additional awards recognising both emerging and established talent.

A professional photography package by Sally Singh will be awarded to a runner up artist, while Brunswick Nature Sculpture Walk will present a mentoring prize for an emerging sculptor.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to vote in the People’s Choice Award, with the winning artist receiving a day on the Rail Trail sponsored

assumptions about Indigenous Australia while exploring the pressures facing remote communities and the ongoing struggle for cultural sovereignty.

Screening first is Our Generation, filmed while Sinem was teaching on Elcho Island and witnessing the effects of the Intervention first-hand.

The documentary captures the voices of Indigenous people who watched army trucks roll into their communities under a policy framed as protecting children.

Having lived and worked in the region for more than 25 years, Sinem brings an insider’s perspective and a level of trust rarely seen in documentary filmmaking. The result is a pair of films that are both politically charged and deeply personal.

The event runs from 4pm to 7:30pm on Sunday, June 21, at the Regent, Brisbane Street, Murwillumbah. A 30-minute intermission will separate the screenings, with food and drinks available. Tickets are available through theregentcinema.com.au

Nest by Glen Smith and Katherine Mahoney explores form, balance and natural materials ahead of the Small Worlds Sculpture Prize exhibit

sponsored by Six and Four Wine Store will also be presented.

Annie said the exhibition highlighted the growing strength of sculptural practice across the region.

“From natural and reclaimed materials through to contemporary mixed-media works, there’s an incredible diversity of ideas and approaches emerging from regional artists,” she said.

The exhibition forms part of the broader Lava Arts Festival weekend running June 26-28, helping further position Murwillumbah as a growing hub for contemporary regional arts practice.

Opening night and prize announcement will be held Friday, June 19 from 6pm at M-Arts Precinct, 105 Wollumbin Street, Murwillumbah.

The business is headed up by passionate local operator Ben Anderson who has been covering the Tweed for last 12 months and has recently expanded the service.

“We have extended our run which picks it up Gold Coast to Grafton and we have been looking removing rubbish for NDIS participants and elderly all through the Tweed,” he said.

Mr Anderson’s team offer free no obligation quotes on all jobs with fast turnaround.

“We also have extensive experience in difficult situations such as deceased estates and NDIS participants with mental health issues and dementia in elderly,” he said.

“Efficient hands-on approach we do the work with fast turnaround.”

Ben and his team offer an experience that is “down to earth and reliable”.

“We let the customer talk and we get an understanding of what they want removed and want to achieve with no price gouging or mess left behind,” he said.

Rubbish Removal has been outstanding. “As the owner I love getting the text message when my guys have left a job from our customer, whether it be a big contract job or a little old lady, letting us know that they are thanking us once again and let us know that they appreciate the great service,” he said.

“Remember we offer free quotes on all jobs with no job too big or small.”

Ben said he plans to extend his fleet of vehicles and trailers taking on more workers and training them up to have good physical and mental fitness and communication skills with customers.

“And in turn give what we can back to the homeless or women in domestic violence or anybody doing it tough in any way we can,” he said.

SINESS FEATURED BU CLICK IT COMPUTERS has been operating on the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers for over 10 years now.

Owned and operated by Brett Reeve, I have served thousands of home and small business clients.

Originally my starting point for the business was noticing a large portion of people were disgruntled with the service and pricing of IT services at the time. I knew there was a better, easier solution.

“I started Click IT in 2009 with the aim to bring more affordable, friendly and knowledgeable technical support to the Gold Coast and Tweed. With 10 previous years of IT experience working nationally and internationally, I had the knowledge and tools to step out on my own and bring my vision to light.”

With Click IT, I provide friendly, simple and cost-effective fixes to all home and small business clients.

Up front and fixed pricing means nobody is stuck with a surprise bill, and my prices have always been one of the most affordable options since I started. All of my clients receive personal free phone support and advice.

The Tweed Valley’s screen appeal

By Rada Campbell

WHEN FILM crews arrive in the Tweed, locals usually know before the credits roll.

Trucks appear on secluded roads, cameras pop up near beaches or rainforests, and community pages light up with one question: what are they filming?

Now Tweed Shire Council is making that process easier for the industry, with the launch of a new online film portal designed to make filming and photography in the region faster, clearer and more efficient.

The Tweed Filming Portal brings permit information, location guidance, key contacts, planning resources and frequently asked questions into one place for production companies and filmmakers.

It also outlines approval timeframes and the information needed upfront, helping productions plan while giving Council a clearer pathway to manage filming activity.

Council’s Manager Destination, Communication and Customer Experience, Tiffany Stodart, said the portal reflected the Tweed’s growing reputation as a screen destination.

“Over the past 5 years, the Tweed has received around 280 film and photography applications, from feature films and television productions to commercials and photo shoots,” Tiffany said.

“Our location, natural environment and strong creative community make the Tweed an attractive destination for filmmakers from across Australia and overseas.”

That attraction has already placed the Tweed in the frame for some major productions.

Ron Howard’s 2024 survival thriller Eden was

partly filmed at Cabarita, while Hastings Point has previously drawn international attention through productions including Aquaman and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.

The region’s screen history also reaches into household names such as Muriel’s Wedding and I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, with Council’s new portal featuring a showreel celebrating productions filmed across the Tweed.

But behind the glamour sits a practical balancing act.

Film crews can bring economic activity, jobs, accommodation bookings, hospitality spending and creative opportunities, but they can also affect traffic, public spaces and sensitive natural areas.

Tiffany said the new portal would help Council support screen activity while managing community expectations, public amenity and environmental impacts.

“The new portal delivers an end-to-end application process that makes it easier for the creative sector to work here, while helping Council staff make timely, well-informed decisions,” she said.

“The film portal is just one of the ways Council supports the screen industry while carefully managing filming impacts on our community and natural environment.”

A Screen NSW spokesperson told The Weekly the Tweed was part of a broader state industry that continues to attract local and international productions.

“The home for screen production in Australia, NSW has a rich variety of landscapes to suit almost any story imaginable, from dazzling

cityscapes in Sydney, desertscapes in Central and Western NSW, to pristine beaches, ancient rainforests, and charming country towns which can be found throughout the Tweed Region,” the spokesperson said.

“NSW also offers skilled crews, including those who are masters at post-production and special effects, celebrated filmmakers, globally-recognised actors, and state of the art sound stages - all of which make NSW a go-to choice for local and international productions looking for their next filming location.”

Screen NSW said the industry generated more than $1 billion each year for the NSW economy, with benefits flowing into tourism, hospitality, transport and security.

“A film-friendly state, NSW is open for business, and the economic benefit of the screen industry cannot be overstated,” the spokesperson said.

The state agency also pointed to regional filming support, including the Regional Filming Fund, which helps offset costs associated with shooting outside metropolitan Sydney.

For the Tweed, the new portal marks a practical step toward becoming easier to work with, without losing sight of why productions come here in the first place.

From beaches and rainforest to cane fields, villages and dramatic headlands, the region offers what film crews are often hunting for: a location that already looks like a story.

Real Estate FROM COAST TO COUNTRY

SCARCITY DRIVING NEW DEMAND FOR BEACHFRONT LIVING

THE NORTHERN Rivers and Southern Gold Coast luxury property market continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience, with demand for premium beachfront homes reaching unprecedented levels as affluent buyers increasingly prioritise lifestyle, location and long-term scarcity.

Recent months have seen a noticeable shift in buyer behaviour, particularly among discerning purchasers seeking irreplaceable coastal positions.

While broader market conditions continue to fluctuate across various sectors, the top end of the beachfront market has remained exceptionally competitive, driven by a limited supply of absolute beachfront opportunities and growing recognition of their long-term value.

This trend has been highlighted by a significant record sale achieved by local agent Nick Witheriff of Witheriff Group on prestigious Cylinders Drive, Kingscliff.

The transaction has further reinforced the strength of buyer demand for premium coastal property and signals the growing appetite for tightly held beachfront addresses along the Tweed Coast.

Along this stretch of coastline, opportunities to secure new beachfront residences remain exceptionally limited.

Strict planning controls, finite land availability and a mature beachfront environment have created a level of scarcity that is becoming increasingly difficult to replicate in modern developments.

According to Matt Nielsen from Maddison Rd, luxury buyers are increasingly focused on lifestyle fundamentals that cannot be replicated.

Absolute beachfront positions, easy beach access, and walkable village amenities continue to rank among the most sought-after attributes in the Australian property market.

It is against this backdrop that Palmira, a boutique collection of three absolute beachfront residences on Cylinders Drive, Kingscliff, has recently reached completion.

Designed to maximise both privacy and ocean outlooks, the project represents one of the few newly completed luxury beachfront offerings delivered to the market in recent years.

Palmira comprises just three architecturally designed residences, each featuring full concrete construction, private lift access and expansive rooftop entertaining spaces overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

The completed homes span between approximately 354sqm and 415sqm,

47

reflecting a growing preference among luxury buyers for larger-format coastal residences that provide flexibility for permanent living, extended family stays and multi-generational use.

Newly completed residences offering immediate occupancy have attracted heightened attention, particularly among downsizers and lifestyle-focused families seeking a permanent coastal base.

Purchasers relocating from Sydney, Gold Coast and Brisbane have become increasingly aware that premium beachfront property is not only finite but often unavailable for extended periods.

One such opportunity will soon be presented to the market, with Villa B at Palmira scheduled for auction on June 18.

Paul Anthony Lomas 05/06/2026

The 415m2 residence occupies a prized position within the development and features four bedrooms, four bathrooms, multiple living zones, private lift access and a rooftop entertaining terrace capturing uninterrupted ocean views.

Construction has now been completed, allowing buyers the rare opportunity to inspect and immediately experience the finished product prior to auction.

For many buyers, the decision is no longer simply about purchasing a home.

It is about securing a position within a lifestyle destination that offers a combination of natural beauty, convenience and scarcity that is becoming increasingly difficult to find elsewhere.

As demand for premium beachfront property continues to strengthen, developments such as Palmira serve as a reminder that genuine beachfront opportunities remain among the most tightly held assets in Australian real estate.

For those who understand the appeal of waking to the sound of the ocean and stepping onto the sand, opportunities like Palmira are increasingly viewed not simply as property purchases, but as long-term lifestyle investments in one of Australia's most coveted stretches of coastline.

Real Estate FROM COAST TO COUNTRY

Hot property

estate career.

By Jo Kennett

OUR AGENT of the Week is Gillian Dawson who is a licensed property consultant and stock and station agent with RBR Property Consultants, who is a smart and savvy agent in the fastpaced world of real estate.

With more than 12 years of experience, Gillian has built a reputation as a highly accomplished property professional, combining market expertise with exceptional negotiation skills to secure outstanding results.

Known for her professionalism, persistence and energy, she delivers honest advice, strategic marketing and strong communication, ensuring vendors achieve the best possible outcomes.

We caught up with Gillian to find out more.

BEFORE YOU WERE A REAL ESTATE AGENT, WHAT WAS THE MOST INTERESTING JOB YOU HAD? Before real estate, I worked in a professional customer-focused role where I learned the importance of communication, negotiation and building relationships. Those skills have been invaluable in my real

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO GO INTO REAL ESTATE? I saw real estate as an opportunity to provide for my family and give flexibility while raising my sons. I was also inspired to be able to make a positive impact on people’s lives by assisting them during some of the biggest decisions of their lives.

WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES AND THE BEST THINGS ABOUT YOUR JOB? The biggest challenge is managing the emotions that come with buying and selling property.

The best part is helping clients achieve great results and seeing their excitement when they reach their goals.

WHO ARE YOU SEEING BUYING PROPERTIES AT THE MOMENT AND WHERE ARE THEY MOSTLY COMING FROM? We’re seeing a mix of local buyers, interstate buyers from Sydney and Melbourne, and a growing number of people relocating from South East Queensland looking for lifestyle, value and space.

WHAT’S THE BIGGEST CHANGE YOU’VE SEEN ACROSS THE MARKET IN THE PAST YEAR? Buyers have become more informed and selective. Wellpresented homes priced correctly are still attracting strong interest, while buyers are taking more time to make decisions.

WHAT IS YOUR BEST ADVICE TO PEOPLE THINKING OF PUTTING THEIR PROPERTY ON THE MARKET? Preparation is everything. Present your home at its absolute best, seek professional advice early, and have a clear strategy before launching to the market.

HOW CAN PEOPLE GET A FOOT ON THE PROPERTY LADDER? Start with a realistic budget, explore government assistance schemes, and focus on getting into the market rather than waiting for the perfect property. Look at getting into the market with a family member or friend. Buy a property you can add value to. Your first home doesn’t have to be your forever home.

It has plantation shutters, air conditioning throughout, and a double garage. Designed for serious equestrian pursuits, the property includes four stables with tack and feed room, four covered steel holding yards, two round yards, and a full Olympic-size 60m x 20m dressage arena.

Multiple fenced paddocks provide excellent grazing, agistment or livestock opportunities, while stunning river frontage and a dam add to the property’s appeal.

Ride, train, swim in nearby crystal-clear waterways, enjoy the cafés and restaurants of Murwillumbah, and return home to peace, privacy and unforgettable views.

Conveniently positioned within reach of major NSW and Queensland racing and equestrian centres, this is a rare opportunity to secure a premier horse property in one of the region’s most picturesque settings.

This outstanding property is up for auction with RBR Property Consultants on Saturday, June 13, with viewing on Thursday, June 11, at 4pm.
