Tweed Shire Council is looking at social housing projects like this one in Southport

Richmond recorded the highest dwelling value to income ratio — 12.4 — the highest of any regional market nationally.

Before the pandemic, Richmond was ranked the 21st most unaffordable electorate in the country to buy a home but it’s now ranked fifth.

The median house price is $1,107,902, up 2.8 per cent over the last year and 54.3 per cent over the last five years.

Experts say that you are in financial stress if you are paying more than 30 per cent of your income to buy or rent a property, which would be a fair share of local residents.

Housing was a massive election issue with major parties coming up with different policies to counter the ever-increasing demand, high prices and interest rates, and lack of supply.

Renters have never been so desperate to get into their own homes and it has never been so out of reach. CoreLogic Head of Research Eliza Owen says that, “it wouldn’t be the end of the world if pric-

90991

THE ELECTION is done and dusted but our electorate is still making the news as the least affordable place to rent in the country and one of the hardest places to buy a home, according to the latest CoreLogic data, with their head researcher saying “we can’t keep kicking the can down the road on housing.”

The median rent in the Richmond electorate — which includes Tweed and Byron shires — is now $860 per week, which may not be the highest in the country, but when combined with lower wages than other areas, it makes it the most unaffordable.

Rents are up 5.9 per cent over the last year and have nearly doubled over the past five years, although rental price growth nationally is slowing.

On affordability metrics, it takes 49.4 per cent of the median income to pay rent, with Melbourne the cheapest place in the nation to rent.

While there was no breakdown for each shire available, Byron does have higher rent and property prices than the Tweed Shire, though some Tweed suburbs have been in the top five for property and rental price growth in recent years.

The percentage of income to service a new home loan in the Richmond electorate is the highest in the country at 78.4 per cent.

It takes a whopping 16.5 years to save for a 20 per cent deposit, based on saving 15 per cent of income, though it’s possible to buy with far less.

es were to moderate or even fall slightly.”

“If housing costs were lower relative to income, Australians could redirect more spending to health, education, and technology, potentially even increasing earning potential as a result,” Ms Owen said, while admitting the issue was complex.

“Housing value performance is tied to consumption through wealth effects, property taxes are a huge source of state government revenue, and many Australians are employed across the construction, financing and transaction of real estate.

“But the alternative — runaway prices, deepening inequality, and falling ownership rates — could prove more damaging in the long run. As a nation, we can’t keep kicking the can down the road on housing affordability.

“Concessions and incentives for first home buyers might provide a sugar hit to home ownership numbers in the short term, but they do nothing for the longterm viability of home ownership as affordable and attainable.”

Twenty less rough sleepers THE TWEED Shire has had one of the largest decreases in the number of people sleeping rough in NSW over the past year, according to the 2025 street count, with the Minister for Housing and Homelessness saying actions to combat the issue are working but more needs to be done.

The Tweed had the third highest number of people in the state sleeping rough in the state last year, with 174 people, behind the City of Sydney (280) and Byron Shire, which had the highest number at 348.

Most NSW rough sleepers were sleeping in their vehicles.

The numbers have been on the increase in the Tweed Shire in line with rising rental costs since the COVID-driven housing

crisis hit, from 58 in 2021, to 127 in 2022, 145 in 2023 to 174 in 2024.

This year they have dropped to 154, 20 people less than the previous year.

Byron Shire had similar increases since the pandemic with 300 sleeping rough in 2023, 348 in 2024, but dropped down to 290 this year, with the City of Sydney resuming its mantle as the local government area with the most rough sleepers in the state.

Minister Rose Jackson said the decrease here, “reflects positive progress following the NSW Government’s $2.3 million investment to establish a dedicated Assertive Outreach team on the North Coast, announced in May 2024.”

“The initiative is helping connect vulnerable people with housing and support,

delivering better outcomes for regional communities,” she said.

“The NSW Government is driving a comprehensive approach to help combat homelessness. This includes strengthening specialist services for immediate support and increasing housing supply to deliver long-term solutions that prevent insecurity.”

Giant Devil’s fig issue

Thank you Jonathon and Tweed Valley Weekly for highlighting the problems of giant devil’s fig in your May 16 edition last year.

Thank you also to Cr Nola Firth for raising a motion in council that acknowledged the major threat that this highly invasive weed is to Tweed’s ecology and farmland.

For those who are unaware, giant devil’s fig is spread by seed. Birds, flying foxes, livestock and other animals eat the fruit and spread the seed.

Seeds are also spread by water and contaminated soil.

Last year I contacted Local Land Services, to whom, like many other landholders, I pay annual rates which are in addition to Tweed Shire Council (TSC) rates.

I was told that landholders have a responsibility to manage pests, weeds and diseases under Australian biosecurity legislation and they advised me to contact the Rous County Council (RCC) for further help or information.

RCC is the local control authority responsible for administering the Biosecurity Act 2015 for weeds in the region which includes TSC as well as other surrounding shires.

RCC’s weed management platform is based on the achievement of four goals — exclude, eradicate or contain, effectively manage and build capacity.

RCC advised that giant devil’s fig is considered endemic in this area and no action is being taken which seems to me contrary to their management goals.

It appears that no help is available to landholders to stop the rapid proliferation of this weed and those who actively eradicate this weed from their land are hampered by the lack of action of neighbours who are either unaware of the problem or are unwilling or unable to do the work themselves.

ing swirl of politicking, pickleballing and other world-shattering events, a gorgeous small advertisement on our notice boards jumped out at me and brought great joy.

It was for ‘Tweens and Teens Thriving’, offering a journey to navigate adolescence, through yoga, mindfulness and creativity. Wow, wish I was a teen or tween again!

What impressed me above all was the initiative of creators Rebel and Karen have taken in recognising the community need, dedicated to help support the youth navigating this sometimes-crazy world.

It takes a village to raise a child emphasises the importance of community support and involvement in a child’s life beyond just the parents.

This was the way communities and villages used to be.

Acknowledging there is a positive push and support of sporting in our community for our youth, both male and female, and this is another deeper strand in the initiative to productively and positively steer and impact young lives, engaging in holistic, creative and positive ways of being in our world as it is today.

I value and recall how such principles — mindfulness and creativity in life skills — helped in my own life during difficult times.

Thank you to all who show courage and see the value in contributing to our future — the teens, tweens and all our youth, to teach them to value themselves, their peers, elders and community — I see a bright future shining through, one star at a time.

Opposition failure

Listening to political commentators and everyday Australians since the election, it is apparent that the majority of Australians were concerned about the cost of living but realised that this was not peculiar to Australia.

Many people have friends or relatives overseas or have been on overseas trips and realised that there were similar pressures in other countries.

They realised that no one has a magic wand to suddenly fix the situation.

Another issue that dismayed many was the idea of building nuclear power stations, most Australians thought this was a discussion that had been had many years ago. Previous Coalition governments had proposed nuclear power stations in the past, but nothing ever eventuated.

Indeed, in the 1990s, Australia banned nuclear power, yet it again became an issue at this election.

These issues did not bring much success to the opposition.

Nuclear door welded shut

Australians have rejected nuclear power and that door is now not just closed, it is welded shut.

Nuclear power is too slow, too risky and too costly — in every way.

The economic, environmental and community advantages of renewables have been embraced by Australians.

Today we are nearly halfway there with around 45 per cent of Australia’s electricity coming from renewables.

Our job — and the government’s mandate — is to speedily, sensibly and sustainably advance the renewable energy future.

It’s time to stop playing politics with nuclear distractions and delays.

It’s time to get on with the clean energy transition, effective climate action and building an energy future that is renewable, not radioactive.

Dave Sweeney, Australian Conservation Foundation

Done and dusted

Well, that’s done and dusted for hopefully the next three years. Here are a few of my observations about the voting system.

First, I totally agree with compulsory voting, second, I do not agree with being forced by law to vote for some people/party that I do not want by being instructed to vote for whoever by having to number 6/10 boxes in order of preference and numbering every box. Maybe I do not want to vote for all the candidates listed but I have to.

This means that a candidate that I do not want in power may get there because of my preference vote, this is not a democratic voting system Finally, we should be allowed on the voting forms to only vote for the people/party we want and to fill in the least number of boxes we want to and leave some blank.

FREE MEASURE & QUOTE!

With approaching a million people now on legally prescribed cannabis in Australia there is renewed interest in the plant which was known as ‘God’s gift’ back in Jesus’ day.

The hippies weren’t so deluded after all.

In fact, this is a plant that can help save the planet and people from themselves.

There is a reason of course why all the entheogenic plants are illegal.

These ‘truth drugs’ which were traditionally used by our ancestors are just what humanity needs now.

Something that can help people alter their mindset!

It’s now 100 years since our government signed us up in 1926 to the international agreement to outlaw the cannabis plant.

And has the drug war been mentioned even once by either of the major parties in this election? Not that I have heard.

Illegal drugs are the biggest business on the planet these days and perhaps it’s time to review this never-ending war, time to see if we are winning or ever can win.

Time to assess the damage like privatised overflowing prisons, exploding mental health problems, and respect for police at an all-time low.

Drug use is really a health issue, instead of locking up the most traumatised amongst us, time to start helping them sort out their issues.

Time to start admitting we made a big mistake outlawing the most useful and safe medicine in the creation.

Land sharing case rejected

By Jonathon Howard

YOUR LOCAL SOLAR SPECIALIST! Solar Power System Installations Battery Power Installations The property at 160 Richards Deviation at Dunbible sold in 2019 for $790,000

both the applicant and the respondent (Tweed Shire Council), and an unsuccessful conciliation attempt under s34 of the Land and Environment Court Act 1979.

Central to the refusal was the development’s lack of a safe secondary access route for firefighting and emergency egress, despite recommendations from the NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS).

While the proposal evolved significantly through the proceedings, including referral to and feedback from the NSW Rural Fire Service, the unresolved bushfire safety issues ultimately led to the court’s refusal to grant development consent.

Tweed Shire Council argued the proposed development did not meet either the “acceptable solution” or “performance-based solution” criteria in the Planning for Bush Fire Protection 2019 (PFBP).

The court agreed, relying on expert

bushfire evidence which concluded that the property’s single, forest-lined access road posed extreme risks in a fire scenario and could endanger both residents and emergency personnel.

In closing, the court concluded that approving the development would put residents, emergency workers, and neighbouring properties at risk. The appeal was dismissed, and development consent f was formally refused. The applicants were also ordered to pay the council’s costs relating to specific amendment stages of the case made on August 30, October 3 and October 22.

The court also rejected the idea of approving the development conditionally on the provision of a second access road, finding such a condition too uncertain without specific plans or evidence of feasibility.

THE NSW Land and Environment Court has refused a development application for a rural land sharing community at 160 Richards Deviation, Dunbible, following a protracted legal process and extensive amendments to the proposal.

The application (DA21/0807) was refused by Tweed Shire councillors after it was lodged in September 2021 and sought consent for the use of three existing dwellings and two sheds, the construction of a fourth dwelling, a pool, and a pavilion all on a 40.1 hectare property zoned RU2 Rural Landscape.

The matter was heard before Land and Environment Court Commissioner Nicola Targett in February this year.

The site is heavily vegetated and classified as bushfire prone and is not connected to water or sewerage infrastructure.

Despite multiple amendments throughout 2024 in a bid to address planning, ecological, engineering and bushfire concerns, as well as no public objections during consultation periods, the court determined that the proposal was not suitable on bushfire grounds.

Commissioner Targett ruled the amended application failed to satisfy requirements under the Planning for Bush Fire Protection 2019 and related clauses in the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 and the State Environmental Planning Policy (Primary Production) 2021.

Specifically, the court found the application did not demonstrate adequate bushfire management measures or safe vehicular access.

The decision followed numerous expert reports and joint statements submitted by

‘Incredible’ Cook Island chopper rescue TWEED HEADS Water Police have praised the “incredible” bravery of Westpac Helicopter Rescue crew who winched two sailors to safety after their yacht ran aground on Cook Island on April 22, as more details of the challenging rescue come to light, but plans to salvage the vessel have been thwarted by bad weather.

NSW Police Marine Area Command Coordinator Sergeant Andrew Parker said authorities were alerted when a personal locator beacon was picked up by the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Canberra and then the sailors called Triple Zero on a mobile phone (Cook Island is only 600 metres offshore from Fingal Head).

“I got the call about 2.45am and called up one of my crew, Senior Constable Andrew Greenup, and we shot out there in the boat,” Sgt Parker said.

“Conditions were pretty good, but they hit on the south-east, which was the worst angle they could hit.

“People on land at Fingal Head said they could see a light and hear the boat getting battered against the rocks.”

The officers were in the smaller Noosa Cat because they weren’t going to tow the boat, they just wanted to get in close enough to rescue the crew.

“We tried to manoeuvre in around the rocks and the reef to get close but the closest we could get was about 15 or 20 metres,” Sgt Parker said.

“It pretty well was in a position it just couldn’t be reached by water in those conditions.”

“If it had eased up on the rocks we probably would have been able to get to it but it’s gone up over rocks and reefs to get where it got to.

“I tried to come in at all different angles, I tried to come in along the rocks and came across rock and reef and from the south and the east [the Noosa Cat only draws 25 centimetres] and there was just no passage I could get into.

“I went down to 0.7 metres underneath me, but when you have a wave breaking and drawing out from underneath me, I would have been high and dry. I certainly couldn’t go any shallower.

“I pushed it as hard as I could because I knew how dangerous the winching would be. It was certainly the worst conditions for winching I’ve seen.”

The rescue helicopter arrived around 3.45am and worked out a rescue plan with the water police on the marine channel.

“The only realistic way to get them off was by winching so they let a helicopter crewman down to the boat and secured the people and took them off one by one,” Sgt Parker said.

“It was an incredible job by the rescue helicopter because it was very, very difficult conditions with the amount of birds on the island — when the helo [helicopter] got there it lit up the sky with birds.

“It was a ketch which has two masts which makes it more difficult to winch down to. Instead of trying to avoid one mast you are trying to avoid two and there was rigging everywhere and one small sail still flapping around.

“They managed to get in and very delicately winch down and get them out safely, so it was absolutely incredible skill from the pilot and the rescue crewman.”

The helicopter dropped the 58-yearold Australian owner and his 52-yearold female crew mate to a Kingscliff sports field where they were taken by ambulance to Tweed Valley Hospital suffering mild hypothermia.

Sgt Parker then contacted NSW Maritime who are the agents for marine pollution and the safety of navigation, NSW Fisheries (Cook Island is a marine sanctuary zone) and the Environmental Protection Authority.

“A contractor has been engaged to try to salvage the vessel,” Sgt Parker.

“There was a strong smell of diesel as soon as we got there and there

was debris in the water — we picked up some paddles and some other stuff [debris was later collected from Fingal Main Beach up to the sand pumping jetty by locals and the salvage team].

The Tribasa Cross left Yamba 12 hours earlier. It’s believed it was heading for the Gold Coast Seaway where it would have arrived early morning.

The American registered 65 foot (20 metre) luxury yacht was sold by its American owners in Australia two years ago.

Plans to salvage the vessel, which has now completely broken up, have been thwarted by an ongoing run of large swell, although salvage crews have been working to collect all debris from the boat that has washed ashore.

A FAULTY LPG hose on a gas stove has sparked a fire that destroyed a shed at Bungalora, between North Tumbulgum and Terranora, on Wednesday night, May 30, Volunteer firefighters from Rural Fire Service (RFS) Bilambil and Cudgen, along with Fire and Rescue firefighters from Tweed Heads, Banora Point and Kingscliff, were called in to assist with the building fire on Balfours Road at around 10.40pm.

“It was a rural fire and Bilambil Rural Fire Brigade were closest and we were called in to back them up,” Cudgen RFS captain Troy Middlebrook said.

“When it comes to structural fires in rural areas, NSW Fire and Rescue are always called in because they have specialist equipment like breathing apparatus on board which allows them to potentially enter smoke-filled environments.

“We have it on our Cudgen truck but Bilambil has smaller trucks so they don’t have it.”

The shed was “fully involved” by the time crews arrived.

“The roof had collapsed, which made it difficult to extinguish some pockets, which is why it took a while,” Troy said.

“It was probably about ten by ten metres, a steel framed shed with a corrugated iron roof, your typical rural shed.

“The shed had a motorbike, a fibreglass boat, plus a lot of other property of the owner.

“It was about ten metres from the house so there wasn’t a big threat to the home.”

Firies managed to contain the fire to the shed but the biggest issue for fire crews was accessing water once they had used up the only supply at the property, a 10,000 litre tank.

“We had to ferry water to the location,” Troy said.

“We had to find a hydrant in Terranora and

fill up there.

“Some properties have swimming pools. This property had 10,000 litres which we used but then they went and found the closest hydrant, put in a stand pipe to connect to the hydrant and fill the trucks.”

Water was then carted back to the fire.

“The crews worked really well supplying the water but once tin collapses on top of a fire you can’t get water through it,” Troy told The Weekly.

“You really need to start moving it but that’s risky for firefighters so that is what slowed down Fire and Rescue firefighters.

“It took about three and a half hours to extinguish the fire.

“Once it was extinguished the Fire and Rescue crews left and RFS Cudgen and Bilambil brigades conducted the overhaul, making sure there were no hot spots or fire extension that might reignite. We spent another hour thereafter Fire and Rescue left doing that.”

Fire and Rescue Banora Point said the fire was, “a timely reminder to ensure barbecues, gas fittings and gas cylinders are well maintained and fit for use.”

Teen charged at Tweed A 16-YEAR-OLD boy is out on strict conditional bail after being charged with seven counts of theft from a Tweed Heads shopping centre as part of an ongoing police operation targeting anti-social and criminal behavior which has seen 33 people charged.

Tweed-Byron police say they have increased high-visibility policing in recent months at areas such as local shopping centres, public spaces, and public transport hubs to enhance community safety.

Early in April, officers from Tweed-Byron Police District held a joint operation with security investigation partners and centre management at local shopping centres.

Uniformed and plain-clothes police worked in conjunction with retail outlets and loss prevention officers to saturate local shopping centres

to detect and disrupt crime.

As a result of the operation, a total of 49 charges were laid against 33 people, many of which remain before the courts.

Following further inquiries, police executed a search warrant at a Tweed Heads home on Thursday, May 1.

During the search, police allegedly located and seized several items of interest, including clothing and bottles of alcohol.

A 16-year-old boy was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with seven counts of shoplifting and four counts of entering enclosed lands without lawful excuse.

He was granted strict conditional bail to appear before a children’s court on Wednesday, May 21.

Inquiries under Operation Furittus continue.

Man flees police TWEED POLICE are investigating after a man allegedly fled the scene of an altercation and led officers on a pursuit through the Tweed Heads area on Sunday afternoon.

At approximately 3:15pm on Sunday, 4 May, officers were called to Greenway Drive, Tweed Heads South, following reports of a disturbance between a man and a woman.

Upon arrival, the man allegedly reversed his vehicle out of a car park, colliding with the side of a police car and another parked vehicle, before driving off.

Police attempted to stop the vehicle, but when the driver failed to comply, a pursuit was initiated. The chase continued through nearby Banora Point before being terminated due to concerns over the driver’s manner of driving.

Despite continued patrols of the area, police

were unable to locate the vehicle or its driver.

Officers from the Tweed-Byron Police District have launched an investigation into the incident and are urging anyone with information or dashcam footage to come forward.

Members of the public can contact Crime Stoppers anonymously on 1800 333 000 or via their website.

New cops welcomed SEVEN NEW recruits started work in the Tweed-Byron Police District on Monday, May 5, part of the largest class to graduate in 11 years after the NSW Government announced paid training for recruits and brought in initiatives to recruit locals and elite athletes.

More than 300 probationary constables, including 24 from the North Coast, are the latest cohort of paid recruits to attest from Goulburn Police Academy after 16 weeks of training.

Class 365 is the first class to benefit from the new recruitment initiative, Be a Cop in your Home Town, which allows applicants to return and work in the community they live to help deal with the issues of finding housing for new recruits.

A new program is also targeting elite athletes, with the Elite Athlete Recruitment Program giving athletes a “flexible, supported pathway” with flexible work arrangements so they can continue to train and compete.

The rookie class will complete 12 months’ onthe-job training and study by distance education with Charles Sturt University.

They officially graduate with an Associate Degree in Policing Practice once they have passed all academic and operation standards.

The officers will then be confirmed to the rank of constable.

While 267 of the 302 recruits are Australian-born, this year the graduating cohort is also made up of students from diverse backgrounds — 13 are First Nations and 35 were born overseas in England, China, India, Iraq, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa, South Korea, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Fiji, French Polynesia, Germany, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Jordan, Republic of Macedonia, Syria and Wales.

NSW Police has received 3910 applications since November 2023, following the paid training announcement which allows recruits to continue paying bills while at the academy.

That’s a 70 percent increase in applications with a 33 percent increase in female applicants.

“Many of our new probationary officers would not be here today to reach their dream of becoming a police officer without that wage,” NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb said.

“To the around 300 new recruits: a big, warm welcome to the NSW Police Force,” NSW Premier Chris Minns said. “Thank you for putting yourself forward to protect the NSW community.

“Our government’s number one priority is community safety, and our NSW police are on the frontline every day.

“This is the latest class to benefit from our paid study program, we have delivered police a historic pay rise, and we have launched initiatives to get cops back to the bush.

“While there is more work to do, we are turning around police recruitment.”

Mark faces cancer fight Lyn retires to leisure AFTER MORE than four decades of serving the community, Bi-Rite in Murwillumbah is closing its doors as owner Mark Taylor faces the fight of his life against cancer.

Mark took over Bi-Rite in 2014 from his parents John and Madge Taylor and has continued a proud family tradition.

His decision to close the store now comes amid a personal health battle as he focuses on his treatment for cancer.

Fortunately, doctors have provided a positive prognosis, and Mark, alongside his family, remain optimistic and determined.

“I’m sad to see the shop close, primarily for my father John Taylor’s legacy, but I’m sure he would have supported my decision,” Mark said.

“I’d like to thank our loyal customers who ensured our business was viable to the end.”

Mark’s journey has been one of service and resilience.

Before stepping into small business, Mark served in the Australian Navy for 20 years, later

moving into franchise management of Bi-Rite, where his father served proudly.

His leadership and dedication has been deeply praised by customers and the wider community.

Mark explained that there simply wasn’t time to find a buyer or restructure the business as he needs to focus on his health.

“Our last trading day is on Thursday, May 29,” he said.

“Customers and friends have already been popping in to wish us well, and I’d like to thank them for their kind thoughts.”

Looking to the future, Mark is focused on his recovery with hopes of a well-earned retirement once he beats cancer.

“The doctor said my prognosis is very good and I plan to fight this cancer,” he affirmed.

As Mark steps away from the shopfront, the community stands behind him, wishing him strength, peace and all the best for the journey ahead.

Thank you, Mark, for your decades of service — you leave behind a legacy of dedication and integrity.

AFTER NEARLY four decades of fitting generations of women with bras, corsets and confidence, Lynette Walpole is hanging up the measuring tape and moving to Victoria to live a life of luxury.

At 83 years old, the beloved owner of Margie’s Boutique of Lingerie and Corsetry is officially retiring, closing a chapter that began in October 1988.

“It’s time for a new body,” Lyn said with a smile.

“I’ve already had two new hips, a new knee, and a new shoulder — now I’m ready for retirement.”

Margie’s Boutique first opened in 1988 and moved into its current location in Tweed Mall in 1992 after the closure of a major local shopping centre.

Since then, the store has become a staple of the community, renowned for its personalised service and specialty fittings — especially for women requiring post-surgery prostheses.

“There’s not many places that can do this service,” Lyn said.

“We’ve always strived to make women feel comfortable, supported, and seen — from their first bra to their last.”

Lyn’s impact, alongside her dedicated team, cannot be understated.

Over the years, she’s become not just a trusted retailer but a confidante and friend to many.

Her store has helped thousands of women navigate sensitive and transformative moments in their lives with dignity and care.

“I’ve always subscribed to the belief of ‘do unto others as you would like done unto you’,” Lyn said.

“This business has been full of love. I’ve appreciated each and every customer, and the friendships I’ve made are lifelong.”

While her final trading day was Sunday, May

Local legend Lynette Walpole has now retired

4, a special send-off was held on Wednesday, April 30, where customers gathered to celebrate her legacy and express their gratitude.

“Lyn and her team have been an irreplaceable part of the community,” said long-time customer Phil Springer of Master Meats.

“She’s helped so many women feel confident and beautiful, and she’s done it with kindness, grace, and a great sense of humour.”

Though stepping away from the store, Lyn says this “isn’t a sad goodbye”.

She’s looking forward to spending more time with family and lifelong friends on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula.

Margie’s remaining stock will be donated to Tweed Palliative Support and a family-run lingerie store in Lismore, Cherie Lingerie, which will continue supporting customers with prosthetic fittings.

Before she leaves, Lyn has one final message: “Please keep supporting the wonderful small businesses in Tweed Mall,” she said.

“It’s a great community and they need your patronage.”

Thank you for all your hard work Lyn, you will be missed.

Closing Down Sale

Unfortunately, Mark has got to close the shop due to health concerns and a lengthy recovery.

He would like to thank all of his loyal customers over the years for their support, and special thanks to Mark’s father John and Mother Madge who started the business 42 years ago.

Come in for a bargain and say hello.

Work is continuing at the Tyalgum Road slip site, with sealing preparations underway in the coming weeks.

Wet weather has delayed progress because it has been difficult for the road’s foundation layers to dry out. From 9 to 20 May, changed traffic conditions will be in place as sealing progresses.

Final works will include: • sealing of lanes • guardrail installation • turfing and hydro mulching • linemarking.

Motorists are asked to use caution, follow traffic signals and observe the reduced speed limit.

Council thanks the community for their patience and for observing safe driving practices during these works.

The project is expected to be completed by late May or early June 2025.

Have your say on long term planning to shape the Tweed’s future

Residents are invited to have their say on a review of the draft Community Strategic Plan 20252035, as well as other key documents which guide Council and the community into the future.

The CSP is part of the Office of Local Government’s Integrated Planning & Reporting Framework, which all councils in NSW are required to follow. The framework begins with each community’s aspirations for the next 10 years, rather than those of the council.

The Tweed community has said it wants: • A healthy natural environment • To be safe at home and in our community with reliable essential services and infrastructure • The Tweed’s people and places to thrive • To work together to plan for the future so the Tweed grows and evolves in a sustainable way.

A suite of integrated plans set out a vision and goals and strategic actions to achieve them. There is a reporting structure to communicate progress to Council and the community, as well as a structured timeline for review to ensure the goals and actions are

still relevant.

Key documents being reviewed and open for community feedback include: • Draft Community Strategic Plan 2025-2035 • Draft Delivery Program 2025-2029 and Operational Plan 2025-2026 • Draft Resourcing Strategy 2025-2035 • Draft Budget 2025-2026 • Draft Revenue Policy and Statement 2025-2026 • Draft Fees and Charges 2025-2026 In 2022, in collaboration with the community and stakeholders, Council developed a new Community Strategic Plan (CSP). Now, 3 years on, Council is seeking to determine progress towards the community vision and aspirations with a review of the existing strategy.

Key areas of focus for the next 10 years include: • More/better services and facilities • Maintaining and upgrading the local road network • Access to more affordable housing • Managing population growth and over development.

Submissions are open until 4pm Tuesday 20 May 2025.

You can provide feedback in the following ways: Online: using the submission form on yoursaytweed.com.au/shaping-the-future Email: tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au, with the subject ‘Shaping the future’ Mail: Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah, NSW 2484, with the subject ‘Shaping the future’.

South Murwillumbah's Alma Street is getting a fresh new look – works start 7 May

Alma Street, South Murwillumbah set to get a glow up.

Exciting upgrades are on the way for Alma Street, South Murwillumbah, with improvements starting Wednesday 7 May 2025. The works will improve drainage, safety and give the street a muchneeded refresh - all part of Council’s commitment to enhancing local infrastructure.

Over the next 6 weeks, you’ll notice: • Upgraded stormwater drainage to better handle heavy rain • New footpaths, kerbs, gutters and a reinforced bus stop area • Removal of one unhealthy tree near the bus stop, to be replaced as part of a new garden bed • A complete makeover of the median strip, including red-brick styled concrete, a fresh tree, a wider pathway and extended layout to improve accessibility and flow.

What to expect during works: • The bus stop will temporarily move 100–200 metres towards the bridge and return to its usual spot once works are complete

• The lane heading towards the bridge will remain open but slightly narrowed • The approach from the bridge will be reduced from two lanes to one • Traffic controllers will be in place during work hours – expect some delays • Budd Park carpark will be partially closed, with pedestrian access redirected through the park Work hours: • Monday to Friday, 7 am – 5 pm • Some Saturdays, 7 am – 1 pm Council appreciates your patience as we deliver these improvements. When complete, Alma Street will be safer, more accessible and better equipped for the future.

Tweed Shire Council wishes to acknowledge the Ngandowal and Minyungbal speaking people of the Bundjalung Country, in particular the Goodjinburra, Tul-gi-gin and Moorung – Moobah clans, as being the traditional owners and custodians of the land and waters within the Tweed Shire boundaries. Council also acknowledges and respects the Tweed Aboriginal community’s right to speak for its Country and to care for its traditional Country in accordance with its lore, customs and traditions.

Women’s SES workshops

Justine wins Richmond

By Jonathon Howard

94142 Imperial Hotel HP

LABOR MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot has declared victory with the highest first preference vote securing her eighth term in parliament and has thanked the voters of Richmond.

While the final count continues following the federal election on Saturday, May 3, incumbent member Ms Elliot is likely to retain the seat.

“To the voters of Richmond, thank you for putting your trust in me for the eighth time,” Ms Elliot told The Weekly.

“I am so honoured to have been re-elected as your local MP with a swing to Labor!

“We faced a tough campaign, but in the end, locals voted for Australian values — fairness, aspiration and opportunity for all — and these are the values that drive our Labor Government.”

Ms Elliot said the support means “so much to me, and you can count on me to be a strong voice at the table in the Albanese Labor Government”.

“Thank you to my family, my team, and all my volunteers and supporters — together, we made more than 50,000 calls and doorknocks in this campaign,” she said.

“Now it’s time to strengthen Medicare, deliver cost-of-living relief, build housing, reduce HECS debts, cut taxes, deliver a Medicare Urgent Care Clinic (Tweed), Medicare Mental Health Clinic (Tweed), North Coast Crime Action Plan, funding for Byron Bay Wildlife Hospital

and so much more.”

Nationals candidate Kimberly Hone told The Weekly it was a “great experience to be supported by so many conservatives with a swing toward me. And I flogged the Greens.”

“I’m excited to continue on Tweed Shire Council in my pursuit for common sense policies and to get our region back on track,” she said.

“One thing is for certain — will keep fighting for my community.”

Greens candidate for Richmond Mandy Nolan has announced she’ll put her hand up to run again at the next federal election at the same time as conceding the loss in Saturday’s vote.

While counting is continuing in the Richmond electorate, Ms Nolan said it’s become clear that Labor will retain Richmond.

Mandy offered her congratulations to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and to Justine Elliot.

Conceding the seat, Ms Nolan offered her heartfelt thanks to the huge Greens volunteer team, which she said: “managed to win significant swings in key parts of the electorate”.

“I am so profoundly proud of what we have built together,” she said.

“Thank you, and I relish the opportunity of continuing to work for this community in the years ahead.”

At the time of print, with 82.2 per cent of the vote counted, Justine Elliot was ahead with 29,541 votes, followed by Mandy Nolan with 25,485 votes and Kimberly Hone with 24,364.

WOMEN ACROSS the Tweed are encouraged to roll up their sleeves and join the next Emergency Preparedness in Community (EPiC) Women’s Workshop on Saturday, May 17, at the SES Tweed Heads Unit in Banora Point.

Following the success of three previous workshops in the Tweed-Byron area, the upcoming session promises another empowering day of practical skills, useful information, and community connection.

Designed specifically for women, the EPiC workshops focus on helping participants prepare their homes and families for natural hazards such as storms, floods, and bushfires. The event is led by local SES volunteers and offers a safe, inclusive environment for women to learn essential emergency readiness techniques.

“These workshops are fun, interactive, and packed with useful knowledge,” said Jennifer Townend, Acting Unit Commander at Murwillumbah SES and Deputy Local Commander for the Tweed-Byron Cluster.

“It’s about building confidence, learning practical skills, and fostering resilience — together.”

Attendees will receive training in key areas include sandbagging for water diversion, ladder safety, gutter cleaning, how to use a fire extinguisher, emergency planning and creating home kits, as well as accessing reliable emergency apps and warning services.

“We’ve had lots of laughs, great conversations, and strong connections formed at these workshops,” Ms Townend said.

“It’s a unique chance to be proactive about your family’s safety while also building community spirit.”

The event will run from 8.30am (registration) to approximately 2.30pm and includes lunch and refreshments.

The venue is the SES Tweed Heads Unit, 155 Pioneer Parade, Banora Point.

Registration is essential, and participants can sign up via the QR code on the official flyer — see the NSW SES Tweed Heads Facebook page for more information — or call Trina on 0418 254 308.

Is your driveway trea�ng you rough?

IT’S GOING to be an exciting year for two of the Tweed Shire’s oldest schools as rebuilding works at Tumbulgum Public School and Condong Public School kicked into overdrive this week.

Students from both schools are in fact set to return to permanent classrooms later this year (weather permitting).

Condong Public School and Tumbulgum Public School were damaged beyond repair in the 2022 floods, with students attending their respective schools in temporary facilities over the past three years.

Condong Public School are preserving items significant to the local community, including the Great War Honour Roll, painted murals, and plaques.

At Tumbulgum Public School, the old school bell will undergo restoration, and historical building materials will be re-used as part of the project.

Minister for Disaster Recovery Janelle Saffin marked the beginning of works last week by turning the first sods at both sites.

Ms Saffin said the Minns Labor Government is “committed to rebuilding public education in NSW so flood-impacted communities in the Northern Rivers are rebuilt with contemporary, flood-resilient facilities”.

“This is a moment of renewal and optimism for these school communities on the Tweed, as we celebrate the start of construction for the rebuilds of Tumbulgum and Condong public schools,” Minister Saffin told The Weekly.

“The new schools will ensure that students have access to a safe, modern, and inspiring place in which to learn.”

Minister for Education and Early Learning Prue Car heaped praise on both the school communities and their families for their patience.

“The students and their families have demonstrated strength and patience throughout this

process, and I want to thank them for their continued dedication to their local public school,” she said.

“The new Condong Public School and Tumbulgum Public School will be world-class schools, setting local children up for future success.”

Condong Public School Relieving Principal Debbie Francis said as we turn the sod we celebrate not just the start of construction but the promise of a brighter future for our students.

“This rebuilding project represents our commitment to providing an innovative and inspiring learning environment that meets the needs of the Condong community,” she said.

“These flood-resilient, purpose-built facilities will support our school in creating teaching and learning environments that promote health, happiness, engagement, and success for our students. We eagerly anticipate watching the ongoing progress of this rebuild.”

Tumbulgum Public School Principal Genevieve Esgate said the team and students are “super excited” to welcome the start of construction on the new school.

“Marking a significant milestone in our journey to rebuild and restore a vital part of our community,” she said.

“The resilience shown by our students, staff, and families throughout this process has been remarkable, and I am so proud of how we have supported each other.

“With each step forward, we move closer to returning to a school that reflects the strength, spirit, and future of Tumbulgum.”

Rough sleepers

Catch up with Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin

Disaster recovery and mental health MY LAST column was written in the weeks following the drama of ex-Cyclone Alfred and I thanked all for their preparedness and cooperation.

This time I want to raise the issue of community mental health in the aftermath of disasters. We are still recovering from the natural disaster that hit us in 2022.

Some communities are recovering from the 2019 bushfires.

The Black Dog Institute says communities that have faced multiple natural disasters are more vulnerable to long-term mental health impacts.

The Black Dog Institute’s report on Mental Health Impacts of floods reviewed 83 studies that found the risk of post traumatic stress disorder, psychological distress, depression and anxiety is heightened in flood-affected areas.

The National Disaster Mental Health and Wellbeing Framework acknowledges that the impacts of a traumatic event can appear months or even years afterwards.

This is something that impacts our whole community as we continue our flood recovery. People can be distressed by a looming cyclone, days of heavy rain, or events such as seeing an historic school building on fire.

It is at these times that I often notice an eruption of anger on social media and heightened agitation in the community as well.

This is a time to remember to look after ourselves and each other, and to know that you don’t have to struggle through

this alone.

There are some wonderful government funded mental health supports in our region that have been provided to help with our flood recovery. Often one of the barriers to mental health care is that those in need of help are reluctant to seek it.

There are the Safe Haven hubs in downtown Lismore, Murwillumbah, Woodburn and Mullumbimby staffed by mental health clinicians. They support people in immediate distress and those who are feeling overwhelmed or vulnerable. These government funded drop-in services are open 9am to 3pm Monday to Friday and anyone can drop in if they need to talk to someone or get information on mental health or drug or alcohol support.

There is also the Lismore Medicare Mental Health centre based at Southern Cross University (SCU). Previously called Head to Health, this hub was launched in 2022 as a mental health service for our flood-affected community.

The service is based at the SCU Health Clinic and provides in-person or phone support for people to access mental health information and services from multidisciplinary care teams. Anyone can reach out for support for themselves or a loved one.

The clinic is open Monday to Friday 10am to 8pm and is also open Saturday 12pm to 8pm and Sunday 10 am to 2pm.

The phone line 1800 595 212 is open 8.30 to 5pm.

For young people Social Futures also has the Resilient Kids program that pro-

vides a range of support for flood-affected schools, young people and their families.

The program aims to make it easy for kids and families to access services. Call 1800 719 625 or go to Socialfutures.org.au/ Resilient Kids.

The Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) provides information and links to mental health support for people affected by natural disasters. RAMHP exists for regional, rural and remote people and communities of NSW to inform and connect people to mental health support.

There are podcasts and self-help tools on the RAMHP website www.ramhp.com. au. Links to other services are available on the NSW Government website www. nsw.gov.au/emergency/recovery/mental-health-support

Continued from page 3 A key initiative is investing in more housing through the Building Homes for NSW Program — the $6.6 billion initiative that is the largest-ever investment in social housing and homelessness in NSW. It aims to build 8,400 new public homes, more than 21,000 affordable homes, and repair 30,000 homes.

“We’re reforming the system, planning for the future and thanks to our record investment in the Building Homes for NSW program we’re delivering more homes to ensure that no one is left behind,” Ms Jackson said.

“We are determined to work to drive down homelessness and as we continue to innovate and expand our efforts to provide more safe, secure and affordable housing for all.”

The homelessness counts were completed between February 4 and February 26 this year.

The numbers are still an estimate, as when the counters find sleeping bags, tents and other evidence of rough sleeping but no people they are not counted.

For the first time in 2025, NSW Maritime completed a count of people experiencing homelessness on waterways in identified hot spots such as the Tweed River.

While 88 people were found sleeping rough on boats, they were not included in the numbers, but that will be used to inform assertive outreach responses for people sleeping rough on NSW waterways.

Approximately 48 per cent of people counted (not including in Sydney) were in vehicles and 30 per cent were in open spaces.

Another 10 per cent of people were in makeshift dwellings and eight per cent were in public roofed spaces.

Finally, it should be noted that in the most recent count of rough sleepers in NSW recorded 2,192 people compared to 2,037 people in 2024, an increase of eight per cent.

Hastings bus oil spill Roads are worse for wear

By Jo Kennett

A BUS broke down on Hastings Point bridge after hitting a speed bump in Bogangar and losing oil, with Tweed Coast and Cudgen firefighting volunteers called out to mop up the mess which spread more than three kilometres and threatened waterways on Sunday, May 4.

Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade captain Troy Middlebrook said the bus hit a speed bump on Ti Tree Avenue in Bogangar, cracked the sump and then started to leak oil.

“He ran out of oil on Hastings Point bridge,” Troy said.

“He just thought he’d broken down.

“Members of the public in Ti Tree called Triple Zero to say there was oil all over the road so Rural Fire Service (RFS) Tweed Coast and Cudgen brigades were called out to deal with it.”

Troy had been spending his weekend training other RFS volunteers in Murwillumbah when the call went out.

“I had the truck there when the call went out at about 2.55pm — we were running a village firefighter course for the Far North Coast — so

we sent the truck to Bogangar,” Troy said.

“It turned out to be a three and half kilometre oil spill so I went and got the absorbent material from Murwillumbah and brought another truck.

“We broomed it into the oil to soak up the spill which stops it from being slippery.

“We went to Ti Tree, then down Sandalwood Avenue, then to Tweed Coast Road and then to Hastings Point bridge.”

The firefighters used a “rolling road block” to keep traffic flowing.

“Our trucks blocked the road while crew members walked with their brooms so we could let cars pass and keep going,” Troy said.

“We shovel it up where it’s threatening to go into waterways.

“We had to wait for the heavy haulage flatbed truck which was able to back right up to the bridge and then we could clean up all the oil on the bridge once the bus had been loaded up.

“They managed to keep one lane open. The bus company sent people out to help manage the traffic and police were there as well.”

The volunteers didn’t finish until 6pm after three hours of work.

TWEED SHIRE roads are looking worse for wear lately and residents are experiencing daily near-misses.

The persistent heavy rain has led to the removal of roads’ topcoat, creating potholes and eroding its edge.

Suspensions are bouncing all day around Murwillumbah, Pottsville and Kingscliff, with many drivers skillfully avoiding the larger potholes.

In fact, The Weekly has spoken to dozens of motorists and several have described experiencing near-misses due to the road conditions.

But Tweed Shire Council cannot control the weather and a spokesperson for council said whilst it had paused road maintenance, crews remain eager to undertake permanent fixes once conditions improve.

“While we focussed on repairing damage from ex-Cyclone Alfred, general road maintenance was temporarily paused. Our crews have started making temporary fixes to potholes, but the ongoing wet weather means they may quickly form again,” a council spokesperson said.

“We’re prioritising road repairs to keep everyone safe, but we need the weather to dry out a bit before we can carry out permanent fixes.

“We’ll keep monitoring and making temporary repairs, but we ask road users to take extra care, drive to the conditions and use alternative routes where possible.

“Thanks for your patience — we’ll get the roads fixed as soon as we can!”

December 2023 has impacted parking across the Murwillumbah CBD. Council told The Weekly it has faced a series of setbacks at the busy parking site due to unforeseen structural issues and adverse weather events.

“This project has involved a complex process working through our insurance company to oversee the works,” a council spokesperson said.

“During initial investigations we discovered that unexpected remediation works on the structure were also necessary and were outside the scope of the insurance works.

“We then made a decision to postpone work until after the school swimming carnival season so as to not cause unnecessary disruption, but we were then further delayed by Tropical Cyclone Alfred.”

Council apologised to the community for the delays and hopes to start work in a few months.

“We apologise to the community for the time that it has taken to get this important facility repaired and want to assure residents that we will start works within the next few months,” the spokesperson said.

Fuel price down down

By Jo Kennett

DOWN DOWN, fuel prices are down, and you can expect them to go even lower, driving inflation and the cost of living down with them, after oil prices fell to a four-year low when OPEC announced plans to ramp up production again.

The Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries Plus (OPEC+), led by Russia and Saudi Arabia, has had quotas to limit oil production to keep prices up around $80 a barrel, with big production cuts since 2022 to maintain that, mostly by the Saudis.

OPEC members like Kazakhstan and Iraq exceeded their production quota so OPEC+, pushed by the Saudis, decided to punish them by raising production for the third month in a row.

That drove prices down for all, in a classic case of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

There was word that China might finally take a seat at the tariff negotiating table with the USA which would see oil prices rise — though you can only imagine they are waiting for things to get worse so Trump has to go begging.

If Trump goes ahead with the tariffs as planned, analysts expect weaker commodity demand and prices, lower global GDP growth and reduced oil demand and prices.

Those global trade concerns were exacerbated when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to retaliate against the Houthis after a Houthis missile landed near the main Israeli airport.

Iran is backing the Houthis who are attacking ships in the Suez Canal they believe are linked to Israel to pressure Israel to stop its war on Gaza, and now the US is threatening sanctions on Iranian oil, which saw oil prices rise briefly.

Trump is desperate to get Putin to quit his war in Ukraine, after promising to end it on his first day in power with his usual flair for fallacy.

The president said of world oil prices: “If the price came down, the Russia-Ukraine war would end immediately.”

Oil prices slumped to a four-year low on Monday, May 5, so we can only hope Trump’s wish is granted and Putin backs out of Ukraine.

Brent Crude was $182 in January and was down to $159 and heading lower on Monday.

Unleaded fuel at Taylor’s Corner was $1.68 — the cheapest in the shire — with plenty of others just over $1.70, which is great for motorists when you think back to it soaring over $2.

That’s good news for drivers and with the increase in electric vehicle sales in Australia also seeing a gradual decline in demand for oil.

Mother’s Day

Thursday, May 8, 2025 25

Mum's special day is fast approaching on Sunday, May 11. The Weekly visited both Tumbulgum Public and Condong Public schools to ask students what they love about their mum.

Charlotte Rendel

Question: What do you love about your mum?

“There’s everything to love about my mum, she’s perfect.

She’s also the one I go to when there’s something wrong.

And she’s the best person in the whole wide world and no one can compare to her.”

Noah Willers “I love that when she snuggles up with me. I love when she listens to me read and helps me with my drawings. I love her hugs and love her lots.”

Tahnee Dee

Luna Vella

“That she has great taste in music and fashion. And she is perfect, and I love her very much.”

“I love how my mum is kind and she makes sure we’re always fed yummy food.

I love how we play with mum.

She’s also a great listener and I love her very much.”

”I love mum’s cooking.

She’s also very pretty.

I love that we go for nice walks together.

And I love her very much.”

BOGANGAR LOCAL and mother Cathy Dawson is a powerful symbol of resilience, love and community spirit as she steps forward to host a Biggest Morning Tea fundraiser in support of the Cancer Council this month.

The event will be held on Saturday, May 24, from 10am to 12pm at the Cabarita Beach Bowls & Sports Club, in the club’s newly renovated Green View Room.

Locals are invited to come together for a morning of tea, connection and generosity — all in the name of cancer research and support.

For Cathy, this fundraiser is deeply personal, according to close friend and fellow organiser Larry Parker.

“In the last 18 months, Cathy, who has a son Jacob and daughter Rochelle, has faced the unimaginable with the loss of her twin sister to leukaemia, her husband Col’s battle with prostate cancer and her own recent fight against breast cancer,” Larry told The Weekly, who also lost his mother to cancer in 2024.

Larry has since adopted Cathy as his “token mum” and feels strongly about her cause.

“Cathy has since undergone a double mastectomy and radiation treatment to her lymph nodes and is currently cancer free,” he said.

After receiving exceptional care from the Tweed Valley Hospital’s Cancer Care Unit, Cathy says she felt compelled to give back.

“We’ve been through a really tough time as a family,” Cathy said.

“But the support we received from the community and the hospital was just amazing.

“Hosting this event feels like the right way to honour that support and help others who are going through something similar.”

Businesses from across the Tweed Coast have donated generously, offering gift vouchers, products and prizes to be raffled off during the event.

All proceeds will go directly to the Cancer Council, helping fund research, treatment and support services for those affected by cancer.

Event organisers are encouraging the local community to come along and show their support.

“We would be so grateful to see the community come together, and to have Cathy’s story shared more widely,” Larry said.

“She’s an inspiration, and this is a chance to support a cause that touches so many lives.”

Event details What: Biggest Morning Tea – Cancer Council Fundraiser When: Saturday, May 24, 2025, 10am to 12pm Where: Cabarita Beach Bowls & Sports Club – Green View Room Why: To raise funds and awareness for the Cancer Council

STRONG LOCAL MOTHER: Cathy Dawson is one tough mum and was fortunate to ring the bell and celebrate beating cancer recently – now she wants to give back

30 NRL Tipping Competition Thursday, May 8 , 2025

WHAT A MAGIC weekend of footy it was. Brisbane have taken on the concept and are absolutely nailing it.

I love the carnival atmosphere, the colours, the jerseys, the retro teams jerseys and just the general all round feeling of the Brisbane precinct.

Plenty of families and big groups enjoying all the footy in one place with nearly 150,000 people entering through the gates over the four days.

The girls on Thursday night was a ripper. To think many of these players had not had a game for seven months the quality of the contest was first class.

The game is growing and developing at an amazing rate and the product is improving every game.

The Sharks heaped more pain on the struggling Eels and the Dolphins continue to battle after a strong start failing against the James Tedesco inspired Roosters.

The Souths have many out but were miles off the pace against a resurgent Knights.

I’m a huge Fletcher Sharpe fan, he is a natural footballer who just knows where to be and competes on every play.

He would be the best support player in the game at the moment.

The Warriors held onto their top four spot with another strong win.

The most bizarre try of the year award has gone to Jahream Bula after he went over a 100m following a Su’a dropped ball over the tryline in what was a great example of playing to the whistle.

A solid first half wasn’t enough for the TItans who got blown away in the second stanza by the Dogs who bounced back strongly.

The Broncos managed to awaken the sleeping giant and it was like the Panthers of old on Sunday night. The crowd

was massive and was treated to a Nathan Cleary masterclass.

Once again highlighting my mental side of the game approach how the Broncos can destroy the Bulldogs one week then lose in front of a massive crowd at home to a team running last.

It reinforces my thoughts about Rugby League being so much more than catching, passing and tackling.

The game of the round was the Storm Raiders game.

Melbourne exploded and looked like they would win easy before Ricky’s Raiders turned the game around and sent it into extra time, the crowd went berserk and it was a great way to end an awesome weekend of footy.

The NRRRL returns this week after the Magic Weekend bye with plenty of quality footy.

See you at the footy.

HAVE YOU or someone you love received outstanding care from a nurse or midwife in Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD)?

Now is your chance to celebrate them!

Members of the public are invited to nominate a nurse or midwife who has demonstrated outstanding care or contributed to improved health outcomes, for the Healing Heart Consumer Appreciation Award.

Each year, the NNSWLHD Excellence in Nursing and Midwifery Awards acknowledge the contribution and commitment of nurses and midwives working in our hospitals and health services across the District.

Included as part of these awards is the Healing Heart Consumer Recognition Award, a category which gives community members a chance to nominate a nurse or midwife who consistently provides extraordinary, safe, quality and compassionate care.

NNSWLHD Director of Nursing and Midwifery Katharine Duffy said the Healing Heart Award was an opportunity for the public to recognise their local nurses and midwives who continue to deliver extraordinary care across the region.

“It’s been a particularly challenging few years

in health, and our nurses and midwives have done an incredible job in caring for our community right throughout the pandemic and recent floods, as well as during the cyclone that struck our region earlier this year,” Ms Duffy said.

“These awards are an opportunity to thank our nurses and midwives for their significant contribution to patients and the broader community.

“I encourage anyone who has had a great experience with a nurse or midwife, anywhere across our region, to help us celebrate the great work they do by nominating them for the Healing Heart Award.”

Nominations are now open, and close at 5pm on Sunday, May 18, 2025. To nominate a nurse or midwife, fill out the form at Healing Heart Consumer Recognition Award.

New Uki Atelier opens Lung bus visit A VIBRANT new era has begun at the iconic Uki Butter Factory with the muchloved Antique and Vintage at Uki passing the torch after 13 years to new owners, Ilona Harker and Nick Hanlon.

The dynamic duo has rebranded the beloved antique emporium as ‘Antique and Artisan Atelier’, ushering in a fresh creative vision while honouring the heritage of the space.

Located in the heart of the historic 1906 Uki Butter Factory, the shop has long been the central feature of a collective of food and boutique retail outlets.

Now, under its new name and direction, the space will evolve beyond a traditional antique store into a hub of creativity, community, and sustainability.

To mark the launch, the Atelier is hosting a month-long grand opening sale throughout May, featuring a treasure trove of clothing, hats, bags, shoes, scarves and more - all priced to entice.

Renowned local artist and performer Ilona Harker will be using part of the space as her personal studio (Atelier), blending her talents in art, design and sustainability to create one-of-a-kind pieces.

“I’m making designer outfits from cotton quilt covers and combining printmaking techniques like block print and screen printing to create something truly unique,” Ilona told The Weekly.

“Everything we use is repurposed. Sustainability is key.”

Her partner in creativity, promoter and producer Nick Hanlon, says they are dreaming big.

“We plan to slowly transform the space into a multi-use workshop area where we’ll host everything from life drawing

Uki dynamic duo Nick and Ilona have launched their new venture and it's excting!

and music to poetry and sewing circles,” Nick said.

“We want it to be an inclusive community hub.”

The pair are committed to reimagining antique and artisan retail through a modern, environmentally conscious lens.

“We’ll still offer upcycled and artisan clothing, furniture, homewares, collectables, and of course, antiques - the original recycled treasures,” Nick said.

“This shop and this building are cultural icons, and we’re bringing new energy and expertise to the Uki Butter Factory.”

Ilona added that they want the community to come together here.

“To mend and befriend, to learn and to

create,” she said.

Locals and visitors are invited to drop in throughout May, grab a bargain and experience the new spirit of Antique and Artisan Atelier.

On Thursday May 22nd they are hosting a Biggest Morning Tea from 9am. Have a cup of tea by donation from one of their splendid teacups, which will be for sale, with 50 per cent of the takings going directly to cancer support for families going through a tough time To find out more visit the new business at The Uki Butter Factory in the heart of Uki, you can’t miss it, or phone ahead on 0477 827 940.

THE NSW Government is furthering its support to protect workers from dust diseases with its new $2.5 million state-ofthe-art Lung Health Mobile Clinic which is providing lung health checks to thousands of people across NSW including the Tweed Shire.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the new lung bus is currently at Tweed Heads to provide lung screening checks — and it’s well worth a visit.

“These lung health checks can be lifesaving by ensuring early detection and treatment of dust diseases like asbestosis, silicosis and mesothelioma,” Mr Provest said The lung bus program provides free lung screening checks to more than 5,000 workers annually in regional NSW. The icare Lung Bus is travelling the length of the state, including visits to Newcastle, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour, Taree, Tuncurry, Spears Point, Gosford, Nowra, Shellharbour, Port Kembla, Bathurst, Dubbo, Broken Hill, Wagga Wagga, Griffith and Tamworth.

The new mobile clinic features several innovations including: Digital chest X-ray technology, providing precise and reliable first instance imaging.

Enhanced spirometry (lung function) testing equipment to evaluate breathing capacity and respiratory performance.

Digital monitoring systems to streamline diagnostics and care.

A backup power supply to ensure uninterrupted operation in remote locations.

Greater accessibility and comfort, with larger clinical space designed to support both staff and clients.

Whilst lung bus bookings are at capacity, for more information on lung health checks or to arrange a screening, visit the icare website or by phoning 1800 550 027. More information on the full list of Lung Bus destinations can be found on the icare website.

SID BRYAN’S show ‘Our Girls’ opens May 8 at Art Post Uki. And once you have seen it you will never look at chickens the same way again.

Our Girls is an exhibition of 12 portraits . . . of chickens.

Richly textured, layer upon layer of acrylic paint, these portraits are a homage to the chickens Sid and his husband once had and which gave them so much joy and entertainment.

Chickens have different personalities: there are shy chickens, bold chickens, bad-tempered chickens, chickens that love being patted, chickens that are more human than chicken.

This is what Sid Bryan, a born and bred city boy, discovered when he found himself living on a property near Daylesford in Victoria with a flock of chickens.

At the same time as Sid was discovering the joys of chickens, he rediscovered his passion for painting. And so he began the immortalisation of his and David’s ‘Girls’ in paint. His first portrait was of Peggy Sue which was shown at Images of Uki in 2022.

Born in Yorkshire, Sid left a hectic career in fashion in London to accompany his Australian husband to Australia in 2017. They moved to Uki in 2021.

‘Our Girls’ opens 6pm Thursday May 8 at the Uki Post Office. Closes June 18. Opening hours: 7am-5pm weekdays, 7.30-12.30pm Saturday and 8am-12.30pm Sunday. Visit: www. artpostuki.com.

Tyalgum Music Fest Riverside Guitar Ensemble accompanies Karin Schauup

By Madeleine Murray

TYALGUM MUSIC FESTIVAL tickets have gone on sale and it’s shaping up to be another fabulous weekend of music. From Sept 26-28, music will be pouring out of the Tyalgum Community Hall, known for its fabulous acoustics.

This year’s program is inspired by birdsong and as such each concert will have a tweet to our feathered friends. From a nature therapy walk to an animated film, the program is varied and imaginative.

The opening Friday Night concert is a night at the opera with Brisbane based company, Voxalis Opera. After the success of Hansel and Gretel last year, the festival has chosen a pocket version of Mozart’s much loved opera, The Magic Flute. “Being able to bring Voxalis Opera to Tyalgum means more people gain access to this incredible art form. The Met, The Royal Opera House, La Scala and now Tyalgum,” executive director Katharine Willison told The Weekly.

Saturday starts with a relaxing Nature Therapy walk. Join Tracey, your Nature Therapy guide, on a morning stroll down by the creek.

“By silencing our own voices and minds we are free to connect to the ever-changing music that nature’s orchestra performs each morning.

This may create a sense of peace and space in preparation for a day of beautiful music,” guide Tracey Jarrett said.

At the lunchtime concert, talented students from Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University will play The Lark Ascending.

“Their talent and energy are always inspirational,” said artistic director Peter Luff.

The Lark Ascending, by English composer Vaughan Williams, was inspired by an 1881 English poem of the same name. Soloist Courtnay Cleary brings this beautiful piece to life.

For Prokofiev’s classic Peter and the Wolf, Matthew Schwarz and the Limpinwood Ensemble will accompany the beautiful Suzie Templeton film of the same name, which won the 2007 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.

Local Skye McIntosh returns home with her Sydney-based group The Australian Haydn Ensemble.

The day finishes with a relaxing evening of Brazilian tunes with The View From Madeline’s Couch.

Sunday will start with Karin Schauup and The Riverside Guitar Ensemble, followed by cellist Richard Narroway in collaboration with Musica Viva Australia.

Pianist Alex Raineri will bring the festival to a close with a beautiful bird-inspired program.

The Tyalgum Music Festival is on from September 26-28 at the Tyalgum Community Hall, cnr Coolman and Cudrigan St, Tyagum. Tickets are on sale through trybooking.com/eventlist/ tyalgummusicfestival

DAVID WILLIAMSON’S trenchant brilliance comes to life when Murwillumbah Theatre Company presents his latest play, The Great Divide, from May 16-June 1.

With more than 50 plays staged, Williamson is Australia’s greatest living playwright. From the famed Don’s Party to the brutal The Removalists, he has been capturing the battles of middle Australia for 50 years.

Mega-rich Alex Whittle descends on a sleepy coastal NSW town with plans to turn it into the next Byron Bay. With promises of a new council chambers and funds for charity, she soon has the mayor and council onside. Can this human bulldozer with money to burn be stopped?

Penny Poulter, single mother and supermarket worker, is willing to stand up to the rapacious Alex. She leads an idyllic life in Wallis Heads, one of Australia’s best kept secrets with its golden sands, turquoise waters and lush green golf course.

The Great Divide has particular relevance to places like the Tweed, which has been fighting battles against over-development for decades.

“We pretend we’re an egalitarian society, but the reality of the Australia we live in now is that it is one of the most unequal developed countries in the world,” David Williamson told the Sydney Morning Herald.

“Our tax system has been engineered by conservative governments with the sole aim of making the rich richer and the very rich much, much richer … This facile belief that if we let the rich get hugely rich, then it’ll all trickle down to us has been shown for the last 30 years to be really pathetic economics that doesn’t happen.”

Co-director Colin Elliott has assembled a classy cast for the first showing of The Great Divide in the region.

Three strong females butt heads - from left Cindy Gibsone (Alex), Yasmin van Rossi (Rachel) and Danielle Linegar (Penny)

“I am excited to be presenting such a topical play – Williamson has written a story for our times,” Colin told The Weekly.

“It’s about the haves and have nots – the haves wield enormous power while the have nots must fight for survival.

“It features four strong women too, and the mother-daughter relationship is potent.”

The Great Divide will be staged May 16-June 1 at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre, 10-14 Tumbulgum Road, Murwillumbah. Tickets from $22 adult are available from murwillumbahtheatrecompany. com.au and go to Box Office, or trybooking. com/CYKFC. There will be cabaret seating and BYO food and drink. Refreshments on sale at the canteen.

TRADES AND SERVICES MADE RUSTIC DESIGNS

MADE RUSTIC Designs are experts in creating customised landscapes that are driven by their client’s vision.

The business owner, Ben Clark, has more than two decades of experience and is passionate about taking his client’s vision and translating that into stunning garden designs.

“Put simply, we love to create spaces that our clients love to come home to,” he said.

“This may include a garden redesign, changing the shape of gardens, plants and increasing the flow through your garden.”

Ben is joined by his trusty sidekick and equally passionate landscaper Barbara Leone, who is from the Faroe Islands in Denmark and has lived on the Gold Coast for more than 12 years.

Together, the dynamic duo have the motivation and creativity to make your landscaping dreams come true.

0401 504 223

“One thing I have learnt time and time again is that the best results come from a collaborative approach between the client a n d u s . Learning what clients love and don’t love is crucial,” Ben said.

“From there we add our thoughts based on what we have seen work/ not work.

“Usually there is a ‘click’ moment, where both us and the client are excited to start. This is key before beginning any project.”

Whilst only relatively new to the Tweed Shire, the pair have already made a great name for themselves.

“One testimonial which I think highlights the above collaborative

process was working with a client and her family heirloom – a beautiful Japanese Toro, which is a a traditional Japanese lantern,” Ben said.

“In one of our initial meetings, we were able to understand what type of garden the client wanted and it was then that the client remembered she had access to the Toro.

“This was the ‘click’ moment we search for before starting a garden design. It became the centre piece of the design and provided that initial excitement to start.”

Testimonial: “Just marvelling in the complexity of the simplicity. Positioning of everything, use of different sized stones, placement of greenery…You’ve nailed it!” said the happy customer.

EXTRA NEWS!

The Heart Collectors are ready to rock

By Jonathon Howard

NORTHERN RIVERS–BASED EPIC folk group The Heart Collectors will embrace the rich Autumn colours this May with a special Morning Market & Garden Concert on Saturday, May 31, in Tyalgum, NSW. Set within a circular garden hedge in the European, country-cottage-inspired Garden of Light, this outdoor concert promises an unforgettable musical experience, complete with catering from the beloved Flutterbies Cottage Café.

The Heart Collectors have made a lasting impression in the USA, where they spent nine months last year touring their latest full-length album, The Space Between — which reached number one on the USA Folk Radio Charts.

With recent high-profile nominations at both the International Folk Music Awards (Album of the Year) and the Australian Folk Music Awards (People’s Choice Award), the band now returns to its roots for this exclusive hometown performance.

May 31st will be an all-day celebration of the season, featuring an Autumn Morning Market at Flutterbies (open to the public), followed by a ticketed Garden Concert in the afternoon.

The performance marks The Heart Collectors’ final Australian show before they return to the USA for a four-month tour from June to October.

“The response we’ve had in the US has been so special,” shares Reuben, guitarist of the group.

“We feel full of gratitude to be able to share

uplifting music and positive energy with audiences across the country.”

Amidst offers from the music industry and major labels, The Heart Collectors have proudly chosen to remain fully independent, representing Australia at a grassroots level with integrity and heart.

This Garden Concert will also feature the Australian premiere of a brand-new collection of songs, written and recorded earlier this year.

The band describes the new material as a natural evolution of their signature four-part harmony sound, offering “a catchy folk-pop tune, a tale of survival through environmental catastrophe, ethereal sonic explorations of love, and fantastical cinematic soundscapes.”

“The Garden is where we rehearse, write, and create. It feels incredibly special to debut these new songs here, amongst the Autumn leaves and our local community,” shares Kymrie, lead vocalist.

“The intensity of touring, performing, living, and working together for over six years has led to the gold of these new songs.”

Tickets include a complimentary shuttle bus from Flutterbies to the Garden following the morning market. Food and drink will be available for purchase on-site.

Bookings and full event info can be found at https://theheartcollectors.com RIGHT: The Heart Collectors are back and performing in their hometown and much loved Tyalgum village this month

Tweed Coast GromTag Surf Comp

By Kiri Henry

KINGSCLIFF BOARDRIDERS Club are excited to announce the return of the Tweed Coast GromTag Surf Comp presented by The Board Lab, set to take place on Sunday, May 25.

This year the event will run at Fingal Head Main Beach due to the Kingscliff Triathlon.

The GromTag comp is a fun new format for “groms” aged 16 and under who will compete in a team consisting of two surfers.

The Tweed Coast GromTag Surf Comp promises to attract some of the region’s best up and coming junior surfers and will be a great opportunity for young surfers to showcase their talent, compete against their peers and have a blast in the water.

The Board Lab is a Tweed based surf store that sells a collection of

surfboards and surf hardware from some of the world’s leading core surf brands and has partnered with Kingscliff Boardriders Club for the second year to present the event.

Owner and surfboard manufacturer Adam Wessel grew up in Kingscliff and now lives with his wife and two daughters in Casuarina.

“I am a proud dad and one of my greatest loves is passing on my love for the ocean to my kids,” he said.

“At The Board Lab we support grassroots surfing, we employ local kids, we support local surfers to achieve their surfing dreams and by supporting this new comp we believe we are making an investment back into our local community.”

LJ Hooker Kingscliff are another major sponsor who have jumped at the opportunity to be a part of this surf comp again in 2025. Paul McMahon is a Kingscliff local and shares a

similar mindset to Wessel.

“At LJ Hooker we feel so proud of our community and it’s a big reason why we do what we do locally,” he said.

“We love assisting locals to secure their dream homes and we feel blessed to be able to assist the next generation of surfers in an event like the Tweed Coast GromTag.” There has been a lot of local business support for this event and other significant sponsors include Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club, Tweed Coast Glass, Desire Contractors, Kingscliff Beach Physio, Xcell Fitness, Tweed Coast Glass and MSC Construction.

Kingscliff Boardriders Club has been going strong for over fifty years and its members include micro sized groms all the way up to the over 50s surfers.

Entries are now open through the Surfing Australia and Surfing NSW

The Board Lab owner and sponsor Adam Wessel with Kingy Boardriders' Vada Wessel, Guy Henry and Charlie Cairncross

Tweed schools take on the nation

By Jonathon Howard

HUNDREDS OF the nation’s most promising young surfers are heading to the Gold Coast this month for the 2025 Australian Interschools Surfing Championships, a two-day competition showcasing future stars of the sport.

Held on Thursday and Friday, May 15 and 16, the event will see over 100 school teams from across the country, including more than 20 from the Tweed Shire alone, go head-to-head in the waves.

The competition pits rising surfing talents against one another, with strong representation from Tweed Shire schools taking on traditional rivals from the Gold Coast.

“This is the next generation of Australia’s superstars of the surfing world, and we’re really pleased to welcome them to the Tweed and Gold Coast for this event,” said Tom Laverty, marketing specialist for event organiser Surfing Australia.

Event locations will be determined based on surf conditions, with possible competition sites ranging from

Tugun to Miami.

In addition to fierce competition, the championships will kick off with a unique opening ceremony on Wednesday, May 14 at 4pm, held at the Broadbeach Cultural Centre Auditorium.

Each team will participate in a symbolic ‘mixing of the sands’ ritual, bringing sand from their home beaches to blend into a shared vessel.

The ceremony will also feature a guest panel of elite surfers, including world tour athletes Morgan Cibilic, Nathan Hedge, and India Robinson,

offering inspiration and insight to the young competitors.

Palm Beach Currumbin State High School, last year’s champions, are expected to return and defend their title.

Luke Madden, Chief of Sport – Events, Participation & Community at Surfing Australia, said he could not be more excited to see teams surfing at a school level rise to such popularity under his watch.

“It’s epic to see the Surfing Australia or Australian Boardriders Battle Format really gaining traction at a school sport level,” he said.

“We are over the moon to be able to provide this platform for schools from around Australia to compete in the 2025 Australian Interschools Surfing Championships. It’s grassroots surfing at its best and a great way for kids to get a team experience through surfing.

Good luck to everyone involved, and see you on the sand come early May.” More information is available on the official event website: australianinterschoolssurf-championships.com
