McGuiness Funerals

WHALE OF A TIME While crowds gathered on local headlands over the long weekend, Sally went to sea with Cooly Tweed Cruises and captured some amazing photos (the above is a composite of two images). “It’s just wonderful to see them come back,” Sally told The Weekly. “I couldn’t wait to see my first whale.” Sally said the young whale she caught on camera “shot out of the ocean like a rocket.” “This youngster is probably a yearling (one of

last year’s calves),” she said. “He was all alone but enjoyed showing us all his breach moves, breaching at least 20 times. “It’s nature at its best. It just makes you feel so good. Thank you Cooly Tweed Cruises for an amazing morning on the water — life is good.” In her spare time Sally works as a microbiologist/phycologist at Tweed Shire Council’s water testing lab at Tweed Heads.

THE WHALES are back and our favourite whale photographer Sally Hinton has captured some beautiful shots of a young whale heading north “full of joy and exuberance.” Sally fell in love with photography as a child assisting her dad illustrate his scientific shell books using photographic plates he took with an old Bronica camera when they lived in Papua New Guinea. She’s been travelling the world taking award-winning wildlife photos ever since.

volume of recent koala sightings recorded in Council’s sightings database. “These additional records, made possible by the vigilance and dedication of residents, raised serious questions about the validity of the ecological report submitted by the developer, leading to a major turning point in the case,” she said. “This outcome wouldn’t have been possible without the extraordinary efforts of our Pottsville community. “From the door-knockers and petition volunteers, to the people who designed and delivered pamphlets, and everyone who took a moment to register koala sightings — thank you. Your grassroots action made a measurable impact.” Ms James and Ms Styles and thanked Tweed Shire Council. “Council stood firm by refusing both the original and revised

Dr Secombe OAM honours RESPECTED FORMER Murwillumbah general practitioner Dr Alan Bruce Secombe has been awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in the 2025 King’s Birthday Honours, recognising his many decades of dedicated service to the local community. Dr Secombe, who served as a GP in Murwillumbah from 1984 until his retirement in 2017, was acknowledged for his outstanding commitment to rural healthcare and community involvement. The good doctor practised from the King Street Medical Centre, a practice he coowned, and was well known across the region for his compassionate care and leadership. Speaking to The Weekly, Dr Secombe said he was “surprised and very gratified” to be nominated and honoured with the award. “I was privileged during my time to work with a whole team of talented GPs who worked together to provide medical services to the community,” he said.

“Any one of us could have received this honour, and I feel fortunate to have been nominated.” Although now retired and living at Tamborine Mountain, Dr Secombe says his connection to the Tweed remains strong. “One of the great rewards of being a rural GP is being a valued member of the community,” he said. “I’d like to thank all the people in Murwillumbah and surrounding districts. I’m very appreciative of everyone who contributed so greatly to my personal and professional life.” Beyond his work as a local GP, Dr Secombe held several significant roles, including Chair of the Medical Staff Council at Murwillumbah District Hospital (1998–2000), Clinical Senior Lecturer at the University of Wollongong Medical School (2011–2017) and a medical educator and supervisor for GP registrars and students over many years. He also gave his time generously to community organisations, serving as a community educator with Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Retreat since

2015, and a volunteer with Pottsville Dune Care. His passion for sport and youth development saw him involved with the Murwillumbah Mustangs Rugby League Club, the Murwillumbah Cricket Club, and as inaugural president of the Wollumbin High School P&C Association. Dr Secombe also managed the Australian Masters Indoor Cricket Team during its 2000 tour of England. His OAM recognises a lifetime of service that has left a lasting mark on both the medical profession and the Tweed Shire community.

IN A landmark decision welcomed by conservationists and locals alike, the NSW Land and Environment Court (LEC) has refused an appeal by Turner Contracting Pty Ltd to build a long-term caravan park at 1126 Pottsville Road — a proposal that had sparked widespread concern for its potential impact on local koala populations. The court’s decision, delivered on Wednesday, June 5, cited “inadequate arrangements for the disposal and management of sewerage” and “unacceptable impacts on the natural environment, including to koalas” as primary reasons for rejecting the development application (DA 23/0302). Friends of the Koala’s Rhonda James called it “a win for the community who made 360 submissions and attended the two LEC hearings to air their voice to protect the local endangered koala population.” Pottsville resident Josie Styles called it “a huge win for the Pottsville community and the vulnerable native species that call our region home.” “In particular, the ruling brings temporary safety to Pottsville’s koala population, which has been under increasing threat from urban development and habitat fragmentation,” Josie said. Ms Styles said a critical factor in the LEC Commissioner’s decision was the

Chemist questions remain

I am disgusted at how our local United Chemist at Banora Point Shopping Village is being treated despite an extension to its operations. It went from a large area for clients to access — even wheelchairs and walkers as the Banora area is elderly residents predominantly. With a medical centre on site it is so important to have an area for a fully functional chemist like United has provided in the past. As the shopping centre underwent major improvements, the United Chemist was moved temporarily to a location that could only be described as a dog box with clients having to sit outside to await their medication to be dispensed with only enough room inside for four to six people. This was only to be for a short time until all construction had been completed and then they were to be moved to a more accommodating area as they had prior to this started. Of course, this didn’t eventuate and they are now forced to close, which I have no doubt another chemist with smaller area needs will be offered. This is an aged care and nursing home dependent store that has been moved for renovations into what you see now. Since the renovations have been completed, the shopping centre has denied a larger complex to move the chemist to what they had previously. To have senior clients now sitting outside to await their prescriptions as there is no room inside for a walker and very limited space for a senior with a walking stick! Julie Robinson, Fingal Head

Please keep out of the cane fields

I wish to bring to the attention of everyone, particularly people who live in areas adjacent to the cane growing areas, a serious concern that cane growers have regarding members of the public entering private property farmland.

93307 All Home 70x21cm

GAS & HOT WATER SPECIALISTS Some people believe they are entitled to trespass on private property such as cane field headlands and hauling tracks. Joggers, day walkers, motorbike riders (often unlicensed children) and motor vehicles do not have express permission from the landholder to enter these cane field areas and do so at great personal risk to themselves and others. Tall cane means that blind corners are everywhere in these fields and the risk of collisions with vehicles and humans on foot is very high, when the operators of tractors and cane harvesters are not aware of people in the vicinity. The solution to eliminating this risk is simple: do not trespass on private property! Rob Hawken, local cane grower and president of Tweed Canegrowers’ Association (please read Mr Hawken’s full report and harvest updates in Sweet Talk on page 36)

Thank you hospital staff

We are so blessed to have such wonderful hospitals in our region. I had to rush my husband in to emergency at Murwillumbah on the evening of May 17. He received brilliant care there and was transferred to the new Tweed Valley Hospital where he spent the next nine nights. Again, he received absolutely wonderful care -— the dedication of the doctors and nurses is so impressive. The warmth and caring attitude of everyone we dealt with at both hospitals was so much appreciated and thankfully he is now home and getting better every day. Both hospitals treat their patients superbly — it’s a shame that our government doesn’t treat hospital staff the same way. They are all overworked and underpaid, a situation that should be addressed urgently. Jandra Faranda, Murwillumbah

Monster X vs Trump

US President Donald Trump has created his own very worst ‘sizzling’ monster (like in the fairy tales) this time he will not be able to sit in the oval office or prance about the White House rose garden thumbing his nose and snorting scorn: ‘No cards to play’. Monster X (Elon Musk — world’s richest man) nicknamed has plenty of cards to play and is playing them by calling Trump’s bluff. Trump’s Republican political base is cringing in fear and rightly so. China’s President Xi (amongst many other world leaders) is belly laughing as Trump is about to be proven a ‘jellyfish’. T Sharples, Tweed Heads

Beef trade talks alarm

Australia should not be trading its beef industry away in trade talks with the US. The United States uses cattle from Mexico and Canada in their supply chain that poses a potential risk to our industry and ignoring those risks would be dangerous. Rather than jeopardise our beef industry, Australia should be leveraging off our strong historical ties and areas such as critical minerals and AUKUS, using real leadership to obtain a fair deal. It comes after Australian Government officials have suggested biosecurity laws could be tweaked, ahead of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese meeting President Trump later this month. Australian farms and farmers must not be put at risk, with the red meat and livestock industry making a significant contribution to the Australian economy. In 2022–2023, Australia’s red meat and livestock industry turnover was $81.7 billion and the industry employed 418,921 people. In 2023, Australia exported 67 per cent of its total beef and veal production, valued at $11.3 billion. Biosecurity is a non-negotiable. We

have the world’s best beef, which is used in six billion hamburgers across the US each year. We rely on our biosecurity protections to enable us to continue to export and build our economy, while also enjoying its benefits at home. Our beef must absolutely not be put on the negotiating table this month and I call on the Prime Minister to rule it out. David Littleproud MP, Nationals Leader and Federal Member for Maranoa

Thoughts with Minister Prue Car

The thoughts of the entire NSW Government are with our colleague and our friend Prue Car (MP) as she begins treatment following her breast cancer diagnosis. I know Prue well. She is a fighter, and I know she will face this challenge with the same determination and grace that she brings to everything she does. I fully support her decision to take the time she needs to focus on her health and recovery, and I know she will be supported by expert care and the love of her family, friends, and colleagues. I also echo her important message about early detection and encourage everyone to stay on top of their health checks. I have asked Courtney Houssos to act as the Minister for Education and Early Learning and the Minister for Western Sydney until Prue returns. Prue remains as the Deputy Premier of NSW, as we look forward to welcoming her back when she’s ready.

batteries, which pose a serious fire risk if damaged or improperly charged. “Fire departments around the world are struggling to extinguish fires caused by electric vehicles, including e-bikes.” In densely populated apartment buildings, the stakes are especially high, stressed Mr Kritzler. “Once a lithium battery catches fire, it’s almost impossible to stop — and if this happens in a basement or hallway, lives could be at risk,” he said. With no official policy to refer to, or at least so far, he said he feels legally and morally compromised. “As a chairperson, I’m being asked to create a safety framework — but without guidance, I can’t do that in a way that’s legally robust,” he said. “The silence from authorities is unacceptable.” He’s now calling on councils, fire authorities and government departments to urgently release formal written policies to help building managers and strata committees make informed and enforceable decisions.

A LACK of formal e-bike and e-scooter safety policies which outline storage and liability is leaving Tweed Shire apartment buildings at risk, according to a concerned local chairperson of a Kingscliff body corporate, who is demanding authorities take responsibility. As the popularity of e-bikes and e-scooters continues to rise, so too do concerns about safety — especially when it comes to how and where these vehicles are stored and charged within apartment buildings. But despite the growing risks, there are still no formal written policies from councils or government departments addressing the issue — and Kingscliff chairperson Erno Kritzler is sounding the alarm. Mr Kritzler wrote to The Weekly after he was recently asked to prepare a safety policy for the storage and charging of e-bikes and other e-devices within his apartment complex. What he discovered during his research was alarming: “there is no formal guidance to be found, and authorities appear scared to do so,” he said. “I called the fire department, Tweed Shire Council, Brisbane City Council and Sydney City Council. I was hoping to access a written policy that we could use or adapt, but it doesn’t exist — not in writing. “Authorities are so scared of potential legal backlash that they’re refusing to commit to any formal documentation.” According to Mr Kritzler, the issue is far more urgent than many realise. “People talk about speed and footpath safety — and yes, that’s important,” he said. “But charging and storing these e-devices is vital. “E-bikes and e-scooters contain lithium-ion

Continued from page 5. “The public deserves to know that right now, there is no written policy in place for how to manage e-bike and e-scooter charging or storage in buildings. That is wrong, and it’s unsafe,” he said. Several incidents have resulted in fatalities, including a recent case in Guildford, Western Sydney, where a 21-year-old man died in a house fire believed to be caused by an e-bike battery. According to NSW Fire and Rescue, lithium-ion battery fires are on the increase, with 22 per cent of fires related to micro-mobility devices such as e-bikes, e-scooters and e-skateboards. A number of these fires have created significant risks for occupants. “They can go onto what we call ‘thermal runaway’, a process involving a chemical reaction within the battery whereby a large volume of toxic and flammable vapour is emitted over a very short period…we are talking seconds,” a NSW Fire and Rescue spokesperson said. “We recommend that these batteries only be charged in an area away from living spaces and away from where people sleep, such as a garage or carport on a concrete floor with no combustible materials around. “Devices should not be left on charge continuously. Residents should be aware of cheap, substandard lithium-powered devices and only buy reputable brands.” Calls by some strata bodies for outright bans on the use of battery-charged devices are unlikely to be successful given how common these devices have become, according to NSW Fair Trading. They have reminded consumers to ensure they are purchasing e-scooters and e-bikes that have an approved compliance mark that meets

Australian Safety Standards. “It is an inherent feature of strata living that residents’ activities and behaviour directly affect the amenities and safety of other residents,” a spokesperson from NSW Fair Trading said. Ben Cabello from Strata Embassy and a member of the REINSW Strata Management Chapter Committee believes the government needs to do more to ensure the safety of apartment building residents, just as it did with combustible cladding. He believes the micro-mobility devices sector needs more regulation covering models, brands and charging. “The councils using e-bikes or e-scooters would have done their research and invested in a quality product, however, the average young person or Uber delivery rider is more likely to buy a cheaper one,” said Mr Cabello. “People take them into their apartments to charge at night, which not only poses a risk but also raises the question of insurance. Who is responsible should there be a fire?” As e-devices become more common across the Tweed and NSW legislation opens the door to more e-devices with very little monitoring, no insurance and no registration, as well as some e-bikes with large battery capacity that can travel at 80km per hour, the pressure is mounting for clear regulations — not only to manage traffic and pedestrian safety, but to address the risks of fire in high-density residential areas. YOUR THOUGHTS: Would you welcome a formal policy around the storage and charging of non-registered e-devices? Further, who do you think is responsible for the e-device and should they be stored in building complexes at all? Send your thoughts and letters via email: editor@ theweekly.net.au

Acid attack shock Help police identify By Jo Kennett

CHARGES HAVE been laid after a 59-year-old man was seriously injured in an alleged acid attack at a home on Darlington Drive, Banora Point, on Monday, June 5. Emergency services responded around 9:15am to reports of a domestic violence incident. Tweed-Byron Police District Crime Manager, Inspector Matt Zimmer, said that the arrested man allegedly went to a hardware store 20 minutes before the attack where he purchased a one litre bottle of hydrochloric acid. The victim sustained severe injuries believed to be caused by acid and was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics who called in the Westpac Rescue Helicopter. The helicopter landed at the Banora Point dog park. Paramedics and the helicopter’s critical care medical team treated the victim for burns to his face before he was flown to Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital which has a specialist burns unit. A crime scene was established, and officers attached to Tweed-Byron Police District commenced inquiries into the incident. Following inquiries, a 35-year-old man was arrested on Minjungbal Drive, Tweed Heads, South, about 10am. He was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with intentionally causing

grievous bodily harm by the use of corrosive fluid etc (domestic violence). He was refused bail and appeared before Tweed Heads Local Court on Friday, June 6. Police will allege that the younger man poured acid onto the other man. He was allegedly living with the victim. Another member of the household called Triple Zero. The victim was in an induced coma on the night of the attack and Queensland Health told The Weekly on Friday, June 6, that he was in a stable condition. Tweed Heads Court has since heard the 59-year-old man remains in an induced coma and could lose his sight in one eye after his son Randall Perrin Laurie, 35, allegedly attacked him with acid. On Friday, it was further reported that the defence lawyer, Simon Enderwick, told the court he had concerns about the accused man’s ability to provide instructions to him — citing mental health concerns. According to media reports, the 35-year-old interrupted throughout the proceedings, saying, “I don’t want to go see a mental health or doctor”. Bail was not applied for and formally refused. The matter is due to return to court on August 15.

A WHITE 2021 LDV van, stolen from Southport in Queensland, has been recovered by police in Byron Bay, leading to the discovery of a significant cache of suspected stolen property. The van was located parked and unattended at the Belongil Beach car park after a member of the public tracked a stolen e-bike to the rear of the vehicle. Upon inspection, police uncovered more than 60 items inside the van. Among the items seized were multiple e-bikes, 15 laptops and tablets, six mobile phones, and numerous forms of identification and credit cards. All items are believed to be stolen, and investigations are ongoing to track down the rightful owners, spanning both Tweed, Byron and Queensland. Police say two males are linked to the stolen vehicle, and efforts are underway to confirm their identities. Investigators are appealing to the public for assistance. “This is an active investigation and recovering the stolen items is a priority,” a police

spokesperson said. “We are urging anyone who may have information about the individuals involved or the items found to come forward.” Anyone with information is urged to contact Byron Bay Police Station on (02) 6685 9499 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Solutions to parking problems By Jonathon Howard

TWEED SHIRE Council is actively exploring a range of short and longterm solutions to address the ongoing car parking challenges in the Murwillumbah CBD following a meeting with The Weekly and local business owners in mid-May. Parking has become increasingly difficult following the partial closure of the Queen Street multi-level car park, in which a near-new Toyota HiLux somehow caught on fire and has since handed the CBD a parking problem. A recent update from council reveals that while parking pressures remain acute on Murwillumbah Street, especially since the damage to the multi-level car park, surveys of alternate parking areas show underused capacity is just a short walk away. Public parking at the Presbyterian Church on Wollumbin Street showed some availability despite being generally busy. “We know that the demand for parking on the main street is high, but there’s clearly untapped potential in nearby locations,” a council spokesperson told The Weekly. Several CBD-based businesses said they are eager to make parking more convenient for their customers as well as calls for more fines to issued. Concerns have also been raised around vehicles being permanently parked at the multi-level car park, many of which are vans with people now living in the car park on a semi-permanent basis.

“Encouraging business operators and their staff to use off-street and alternate parking may help free up on-street spaces for customers,” council said. There was a further request that council investigate line markings and unused bus zones to expand any potential car parking spaces. Council said it investigated the possibility of introducing individual parking bay markings on roads like Tumbulgum Road. However, council’s traffic team advised that doing so could reduce the total number of car spaces, as longer bays would be needed to avoid dangerous reversing manoeuvres. A review of the bus stop opposite Dinki Di Discounts on Murwillumbah Street is also underway. Currently signed as a ‘Loading Zone’ in the morning and a ‘Bus Zone’ during the day, the space may no longer be in active use by bus services. “If confirmed, it could be proposed to the Local Traffic Committee for conversion into a full-time loading zone, potentially easing delivery-related pressures for nearby businesses,” council said. Council has also approached Murwillumbah TAFE regarding public use of its car park. “While it is fully used by staff and students during the week, TAFE indicated a willingness to allow weekend public access, but it’s still in discussions with the TAFE Murwillumbah site,” council said.

“This could offer another solution for weekend visitors, particularly during events or peak trading times.” Council acknowledges that car parking in Murwillumbah remains a complex issue, largely due to the popularity of Murwillumbah Street and the ongoing partial closure of the multi-level car park. However, with data showing that nearby alternatives are often underutilised, officials are urging the community to consider small behavioural changes that could significantly reduce congestion.

Parking enforcement and public sentiment In response to calls for increased parking enforcement, council is still awaiting a full update on the current enforcement regime in the Murwillumbah CBD. However, the sentiment remains cautious. “While the aim is to increase turnover, I’m not convinced that stronger enforcement will be welcomed by local businesses and customers at this stage,” the report stated, suggesting any such move must be consultative and measured. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe greater parking enforcement is needed to deter long-stay parking in Murwillumbah’s CBD? Or do you believe people should have unlimited parking, including in the multi-level car park? Send your thoughts and letters to the editor via email: editor@ theweekly.net.au

To its credit Tweed Shire Council has been actively monitoring the Murwillumbah CBD for parking and there are a few options that could help free up parking for customers

KIDS HELPLINE is encouraging Tweed Shire boys and young men to take time to prioritise their mental health this week, as part of International Men’s Health Week. Yourtown CEO Tracy Adams says this is an important date for all members of the community, but particularly young men and those with young men in their lives, to build a positive culture around mental health and emotional wellbeing. Males are shown to have significantly reduced help-seeking for mental health concerns compared with females. Kids Helpline recorded 57 contacts from males on an average day in May 2025, when compared with 195 females on the same day. Counsellors at Kids Helpline respond to 21 per cent males and 79 per cent females on any given day, with males aged between 19 to 25 years of age representing the largest (37 per cent) male help-seeking group. “Unfortunately, young males aged between 15 to 18 years of age are the least likely to seek mental health support due to societal stigma, often delaying seeking professional counsellor

help until they are in crisis,” Ms Adams said. “Many boys, though certainly not all, have trouble talking about emotions and feelings because social norms have encouraged them to conform to a masculine ideal that emphasises values like stoicism, toughness and competitiveness. “These social dynamics have long-term implications for their mental health. “We need to twist the prism a little bit about how boys view mental health and their own emotional health.” Kids Helpline offers boys and young men a safe, inclusive space to open-up and connect with free, professional, confidential and 24/7 service to support self-awareness, and tools to help manage strong emotions when they struggle. “As a community, weeks like these give as a great opportunity to engage with boys and young men their well-being,” Ms Adams concluded. Kids Helpline is Australia’s only national 24/7 counselling service specifically for children and young people aged five to 25 years and is a service of Yourtown.

CABARITA BEACH Bowls and Sports Club has taken a step into the future, unveiling two brand-new pickleball courts recently, in a move that blends modern recreation with the club’s long-standing community traditions. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was led by Club Chairman Greg Goode alongside new General Manager Chris Watson, outgoing GM Steve Penfold, and with a large gathering of members and pickleballers on Thursday, June 5. Tweed Mayor Chris Cherry also attended to help mark the significant milestone in the club’s $2 million transformation over the past three years. The new courts — built using local trades such as Hungry Wolf Studio (concreting) and EMI Painting (surfacing) — signals a bright new chapter for Cabarita’s iconic venue. “We see pickleball as a growing sport, especially with families and active seniors, it’s a fantastic fit for our community,” Mr

Goode told The Weekly. “This is about connection — joining the community together in fresh, fun and social ways.” Mr Watson called the addition a “massive win” for both members and the broader community. “We’re proud to offer pickleball without compromising our legacy of bowls,” he said. “It’s an exciting evolution of the club.” Established in 1962, Cabarita Beach Bowls and Sports Club has steadily expanded its offerings with members now enjoying not only bowls and pickleball but also golf, fishing and dance. Former GM Mr Penfold, who stewarded the club through four years of sustainable development, bid farewell at the event. “It’s bittersweet to leave, but I know the club is in great hands, the future looks bright,” he said, standing alongside longtime members Leigh Kealton, Debbie Paul, Mike Maslen, and Jeff Ware. The courts are available to book online starting Monday, June 9, open six days a

week from 9am to 5pm. Members receive discounted rates and locals are already expressing a strong interest. To get started pickleball players are advised to create a pickleball account via the club’s website. After that bookings and payments can be made online. There will also be a weekly beginner coaching session along with daily club social bookings. Mayor Cherry praised the club’s continued service. “Caba Beach Sports continues to grow while keeping its heart in the community,” she said. “This is what local leadership and vision looks like.” Despite nine weeks of challenging rain, the courts were completed on schedule — a testament to the determination of all involved. Locals are encouraged to try the new courts and see why pickleball is quickly becoming one of the fastest-growing sports in Australia.

Big changes coming to Murwillumbah Civic Centre

Makeover time. Murwillumbah Civic Centre is getting a new do.

Starting Monday 16 June, Council will begin a 5-week transformation of the Civic Centre entrance, improving access to the library, auditorium and customer service centre — and setting the stage for even more upgrades in the future. What’s being rolled out? • a new pedestrian footpath – safer, smoother and

more accessible • a revamped asphalt car park • better entry and exit points onto Tumbulgum Road • reinstated short-term parking. While this project focuses on essential infrastructure, we’re laying the groundwork for exciting future additions — think café-style seating, garden beds, trees and places to sit and connect. What to expect during construction: • The vehicle access ramp, access road and shortterm parking at the front will be closed. • Pedestrian access will change — but you’ll still be able to get to the library, auditorium and admin office via temporary paths. • The accessible ramp will be closed for up to one week at the start — with a detour in place. Access to the TRAC centre and multistorey car park will stay open throughout the upgrade. Need a hand getting in during works? Call us on 02 6670 2400 – we’re here to help.

Local voices shaping local decisions

Council is working closely with the community to make sure local voices are heard when it comes to planning and decision-making in the Tweed. One of the ways this happens is through the Resident, Environment and Industry Group Roundtable (REIGR). The group meets 3 times a year and brings together a mix of community members, including residents, business operators and environmental advocates, to talk directly with Council staff. These forums give participants the chance to raise issues, ask questions and share ideas on projects that matter to them. The aim is to ensure Council’s work reflects the needs, concerns and hopes of the people who live and work in the Tweed. Feedback from the latest forum, held in May, was very positive. “A very informative session. It was interesting to hear the views of other community members – it really opened my eyes to different perspectives,” said one participant. “Everything was so supported and organised,” said another.

King’s honours list By Jonathon Howard

RETIRED HORTICULTURIST David Peasley has been appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in the King’s Birthday Honours List, announced on Monday, June 9. Mr Peasley received the prestigious honour in recognition of his significant service to horticulture, particularly through his contributions to the coffee, banana and passionfruit industries. With a career spanning nearly five decades, Mr Peasley’s impact has been both wide-reaching and deeply influential. His work was highlighted in a 2018 feature published by the Australian Banana Growers Council, authored by Amy Spear, which chronicled his journey from humble beginnings to national leadership in horticultural research and development. His path began on a farm in Mooball, where a grower’s enthusiasm for plant nutrition sparked David’s own interest in agriculture. This eventually led to formal study and a thesis focused on banana cultural management in the Tweed Shire — laying the groundwork for what would become a lifetime commitment to tropical horticulture. Over the years, Mr Peasley held numerous influential roles, including District Horticulturalist with NSW Agriculture, consultant, and project leader for critical biosecurity and plant protection programs. Among his many achievements was his leadership in the long-running national effort to eradicate banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) and his pivotal role in opposing the importation of Philippine bananas to protect Australia’s banana industry. “David is well known for not giving up and achieving positive outcomes,” Northern NSW grower Peter Molenaar said, who worked alongside Mr Peasley on several key projects. “The standout has to be the way he instilled

attitudinal change in growers in their quest to rid the area of banana bunchy top virus. “His evaluation and communication skills have been invaluable.” Mr Peasley acknowledged the early challenges of gaining trust as a government horticulturist. “It takes a fair bit of time to win their confidence,” he said in 2018. “They’re hardworking and tend to be cynical — and I was in government. “But I think if you get your head down, show an interest, and know your stuff, you do get respect.” His professional legacy extends beyond practical fieldwork. Mr Peasley was an active contributor to research, policy consultation, and extension services, always championing collaboration between growers and scientists. Professor André Drenth, from the University of Queensland, described Mr Peasley as having a “rare blend of practical knowledge and industry insight.” “David has a unique combination of industry insight and practical knowledge, which he has always shared with researchers and growers for the benefit of the banana industry,” he said. “There is never a dull moment when you are around David.”

A driving force behind our banana industry David Peasley was honoured with an AM

The Gidjuum Gulganyi Walk is now open and it's amazing!

New walk opens By Jonathon Howard

A STUNNING new multi-day hiking trail winding through the lush hinterland of the Tweed Valley has officially opened, offering walkers a rare opportunity to explore one of Australia’s most biodiverse and culturally significant landscapes. The Gidjuum Gulganyi Walk — meaning ‘Old People’s Track’ — is a 42-kilometre, multi-day trek that begins in the Tweed Shire and winds through Mount Jerusalem National Park, Nightcap National Park and the Whian Whian State Conservation Area. More than just a walk, The Gidjuum Gulganyi Walk is an immersive journey through Widjabul Wia-bal and Minjungbal Country, part of the Bundjalung Nation, whose people have cared for this land for millennia. Anchoring the northern end of the walk, the Tweed Shire plays a central role in the experience, giving visitors direct access to ancient rainforests, blue quandong groves, cascading creeks, and sweeping views of Wollumbin — the towering sacred mountain at the heart of the region’s volcanic caldera. The trail is one of seven included in the NSW Government’s new ‘Find Your Path on a NSW Great Walk’ campaign, which officially launched on June 8. The campaign aims to inspire both experienced and novice hikers to explore the state’s newest multi-day trails, spanning 275 kilometres of walking tracks across regional NSW. Minister for the Environment Penny Sharpe said the campaign highlights the growing popu-

worked across both emergency medicine and general practice. He holds a diploma of child health and maintains a strong interest in paediatrics, palliative care, antenatal care, family medicine, and acute surgical and medical conditions. Dr Engel has also spent nearly 20 years teaching medical students and has served as an events doctor with Surf Life Saving Australia. Outside of work, he enjoys long hikes, anything to do with the ocean and spending time with his family and dog.

Dr Rachael Eddywing is a compassionate and experienced general practitioner with over 20 years in medicine, offering patient-centred care to individuals and families. A local who studied at The University of Sydney, she has a broad interest in general practice, with special focus on adolescent and sexual health, women's health including IUD insertion and menopause and neurodivergent care.

larity of nature-based travel and the importance of national parks in driving regional economies. “By promoting these fantastic NSW Great Walks, we are encouraging people to find their path and explore our regions in new and adventurous ways,” Minister Sharpe said. Minister for Tourism and Jobs Steve Kamper echoed the sentiment, pointing to the Gidjuum Gulganyi Walk as a standout addition. “Traversing our state’s spectacular unspoilt beaches, ancient rainforests and majestic mountain peaks, these walks have opened within the last two years and are truly spectacular,” Minister Kamper said. “NSW national parks not only provide authentic connections with the state’s culture and stunning landscapes, they also support thousands of jobs and contribute millions of dollars in visitor expenditure to regional NSW.” The walk has been carefully designed to blend sustainability with accessibility, featuring designated camping areas, scenic lookouts, and clear signage. Hikers can choose from self-guided or guided options, with overnight stays supported by camping and eco-accommodation providers. The Gidjuum Gulganyi Walk is expected to attract strong interest from both domestic and international visitors, with new data showing 9.9 million people visited NSW national parks in 2024, spending over $11.7 billion across the state.

Final call for singing award By Jonathon Howard

A SIGNIFICANT chapter in the Tweed’s rich cultural history is sadly coming to a close, with the announcement that 2025 will be the final year of the Alton Budd Memorial Award, a prestigious prize of $10,000, that has supported young vocal talent between the ages of 20 to 35 since its founding in 1987. For its final year the award will be presented at the Murwillumbah Civic and Cultural Centre on Saturday, June 28, starting at 6pm. The prerequisite for the award will be held on the same day and venue starting at 4pm. Spearheaded by Margot Anthony (née Budd) and her brother Peter Budd, the award has quietly played a powerful role in nurturing aspiring singers — many of whom have gone on to achieve national

and international success. The award is named after Margot and Peter’s father, Alton Budd, who was a past president of the then Murwillumbah Music Festival. Margot has been a long time patron of the festival. The Budd siblings, both lifelong supporters of the arts and talented musicians themselves, have decided to wind up the award this year, marking the end of an era for the Murwillumbah Festival of Performing Arts, where the prize has long been featured as a section of the music genre of the festival. Among the award’s notable alumni is Kiandra Howarth, winner of the 2008 prize and now an internationally recognised soprano. A graduate of All Saints Anglican School on the Gold Coast, Howarth is currently starring as the Countess in Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro with Opera Austra-

lia, performing in both Sydney and Melbourne. She is also under contract with the Hannover Opera in Germany. “This award has been a stepping stone for so many,” said Ian Holston, a long-time supporter of the festival and one of many inspired by Margot’s lifelong dedication to the arts. “Margot’s contribution to music in the region is deeply rooted — her father sang locally well into his eighties and was a great mentor to many, including myself.” As the Budd family singing award reaches its final year, there’s a growing sense of appreciation for the legacy it leaves behind. The award has helped identify and support emerging singers from across the region, providing performance opportunities, encouragement, and a pathway into the demanding world of professional music. While the award may be drawing to a close, its influence will echo on in concert halls and opera houses around the world wherever its past winners continue to sing.

THE NEWLY refurbished clubhouse at the Uki Sports and Recreation Club is now officially open after a huge amount of work after the devastating floods in 2022. The Weekly caught up with Uki Pythons Football Club vice president Andrew Bennett who has welcomed the new clubhouse. The restoration — supported by Tweed Shire Council and funded by the Office of Sport’s Sports Priority Needs Program and Essential Community Sport Assets — incorporates many flood resilience measures including a second-storey storage area. The revitalised building now boasts changing rooms, a referee’s room, bar area, canteen, storage rooms and toilets complimented by the resurfaced access road and car park. “On Saturday, June 7, a community working bee moved equipment back into the building for the first time in three years and franchisee Ethan Manickum from Harvey Norman, Murwillumbah, kindly donated some much-needed equipment for the new canteen,” Mr Bennett told The Weekly. “The Uki Pythons junior soccer teams then celebrated with a two-hour round robin six-a-side tournament, followed by sausages cooked in the brand-new kitchen for the first time. “The Uki Pythons Football (soccer) and Touch Footy Clubs look forward to using these wonderful new facilities and a big thank you to all parties who have helped get this new clubhouse alive and kicking with donations and support.” To find out more about the new Uki sports field, or to get involved, please email: andytravel7@gmail.com

Tweed loses legend of film audio: Paul Brincat By Jonathon Howard

THE TWEED is mourning the loss of Paul ‘Salty’ Brincat, an internationally acclaimed sound engineer and long-time Fernvale resident who passed away peacefully on Sunday, June 1, after a battle with brain cancer. He was 74. Known within the global film and television industry for his extraordinary talent and quiet mastery behind the scenes, Paul leaves behind a legacy that spans more than five decades, more than 40 films and numerous accolades, including most notably an Oscar nomination, an Emmy Award and multiple Australian film and television honours. His brother, Vincent Brincat, reached out to The Weekly to share Paul’s story and to ensure his incredible career and contributions are recognised and remembered in the community he called home for the past 36 years. “Paul was more than a sound engineer, he was an artist in his own right,” Vincent said. “He had a rare ability to bring stories to life through sound, and he never sought the spotlight, even though his work so often helped shape it.” Paul was nominated for Best Sound at the 71st

Academy Awards in 1999 for his work on The Thin Red Line, a sweeping war epic directed by Terrence Malick. He also won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Sound Mixing for the beloved television series Flipper in 1996. Over his extensive career, Paul collaborated with some of the industry’s most iconic directors, including George Lucas, Ron Howard and Russell Crowe, earning their respect for his professionalism, creativity and unshakeable calm on set. He was also the sound recordist on such films as The Thin Red Line, Star Wars Episode II and III, Thirteen

Paul 'Salty' Brincat made an invaluable contribution to the film industry

Lives, The Invisible Man, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Mission Impossible 2, The Delinquents and Young Einstein. He was the sound recordist on such television shows and series as Flipper, Archer, Melba, Irreverent, A Place to Call Home, Eden, The Young Doctors, Redfern Now, Terra Nova, Wake in Fright and Cleverman. Despite the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, Paul remained grounded choosing to make his home in the quiet hills of Fernvale, where he lived for more than three decades and was known to neighbours as a humble and kind-hearted local. Friends and colleagues often described Paul as a “sound magician” who brought depth and emotion to every project he touched. In fact, even as you’re reading this article, who could forget the sounds of Flipper, further emphasising the power of audio across film. His presence in the Australian film and television community was deeply valued, not only for his technical skill but for his generosity in mentoring young professionals entering the industry. While his name may not have appeared on screen as often as the stars he worked with, his influence was undeniable — and his loss will be felt across both the local community and the global film world. “Paul never needed the red carpet to know his worth,” said Vincent. “He loved his work, he loved this region, and he gave everything to both.” As his family prepares to honour Paul’s life, they are encouraging the community to reflect not only on his impressive achievements, but on the quiet dignity and passion with which

he lived. Paul is survived by his brother Vincent and a wide network of colleagues, friends and admirers around the world. “A memorial is planned to honour his life this month. It will bring together family, friends and a host of work colleagues from both television and film,” Vincent said.

THE WONDERFUL members of The Lions Club of Cabarita and Pottsville Beach recently celebrated their 50th anniversary of doing amazing, selfless work to help their community at a luncheon at Pottsville Beach Community Hall. The volunteers have raised thousands of dollars for local schools, organisations and those in need, their only motivation to help out others. The club thanked special guests, Lions Club District Governor Jorge Salles and his wife Libby, Zone Chairman Trevor Hall and wife Val — all Lions Club members — as well as Mayor Chris Cherry and Deputy Mayor Meredith Dennis OAM. John Harden, a member who has been with the club for over 40 years, was presented with life membership by the District Governor and the club also thanked Heather Johansen, the widow of founding member Don Johansen, for joining in the celebration. Bogangar Public School P&C thanked the club for all their work. “We’re incredibly grateful for all that you do for our school and the wider community,” a

P&C spokesperson said in a social media post. “From hosting the much loved annual Community Christmas Party to selling raffle tickets that directly support our school, your generosity and commitment don’t go unnoticed. “Thank you for the time you dedicate, the funds you raise and the many ways you’ve supported our students over the years. “We truly appreciate your ongoing support and wish all members and volunteers a wonderful 50th anniversary celebration.” The club said it was “a lovely 50th anniversary luncheon for our club — thank you to all involved — from our members who did a great job, some for months.” “The hall was the perfect setting for us, especially as it was our first big project we ever took on,” the club said in a social media post. “From the kitchen to the projector and mic system, it went perfectly.” The Pottsville Pluckers provided the entertainment, the Pottsville Garden Club some beautiful flowers, and FoodWorks, Chempro Caba and Woolworths Cabarita donated raffle prizes, and the amazing Susie Rawson from Caba Bakehouse made a “gorgeous” cake.

Cooly Rocks On By Jonathon Howard

Membership offers the opportunity to serve in a way that best suits you and be rewarded for being part of a dedicated group. Service is just one benefit – you can also expect fellowship, fulfillment and fun!

AUSTRALIA’S LARGEST nostalgia festival, Cooly Rocks On, has once again proved that vintage will always be cool, with incredible attendance numbers drawing more than 160,000 people to the sun-drenched streets of Coolangatta. From June 2 to 8, the beachside suburb transforms into a time capsule, celebrating the music, cars and culture of the 1950s through to the 1970s. On Saturday, June 7, The Weekly joined thousands of festivalgoers to soak in the vibrant atmosphere, exploring dazzling vintage car displays, high-energy live music stages, the ever-popular Elvis tribute acts and so much more.

We need new members to grow this proud club so we can continue to provide assistance to this great community! Why not join with a friend and choose how you would like to serve. Our fortnightly meetings are held at the Cudgen Headland Surf Club.

THERE ARE many problems that people encounter when wearing (or learning to wear) a denture – sore spots, looseness and damaged or missing denture teeth to name a few. The good news is there is no need to endure through pain or problems with your denture. In most cases, your dental prosthetist can help. Sore spots are the most common problem faced by denture wearers. A sore spot occurs when the denture moves and rubs on the gum, causing a small amount of swelling leading to the denture rubbing more. Left untreated, the rubbing continues until the skin on the gum breaks causing a painful ulceration. This is something that can quickly be fixed by your dental prosthetist. By identifying where the denture is rubbing on the gum, and adjusting the denture accordingly, relief should be instantaneous. The trick is treating the sore spot when it is a small problem, before it becomes a painful ulceration. A number of different factors can cause a denture to feel ‘loose’. If it is a partial denture, perhaps it is a simple matter of having the clasps tightened, or if it is a full denture, you may need a reline. When you have a natural tooth extracted, your gums shrink and are continually changing shape. Whilst this change slows down over time, it never completely stops, meaning that your denture is only a ‘good fit’ for a certain period of time. A reline replaces the fitting surface of your denture to suit the shape your gums are now, not the shape they were when the denture was made. A reline usually takes one day to complete and, in most cases, fixes a perceived

looseness issue. In some cases, especially with a complete lower denture, implants may be required to stop the denture from moving around. A consultation with a dental prosthetist is the safest way to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. Missing or damaged denture teeth is something that can affect daily life. Being embarrassed to smile or speak to people can seriously impact one’s self esteem. Denture teeth as well as other denture components (clasping, ‘gum’ area etc) can be replaced or repaired. A denture repair is generally fairly straight forward and happens inhouse over a couple of hours depending on the repair. Whether you are experiencing sore spots, denture looseness, need a denture repair, or your denture simply needs a clean, Bromley’s Denture Clinic can help. We are your family owned local denture clinic with over 20 years combined experience, and whatever your denture problem may be, we are here to listen and help where ever we can. Life is too short to endure denture ‘teething problems’. To find out more visit 54 Kirkwood Road, Tweed Heads South, or phone (07) 5523 2555.

Vaccinations are crucial in the cooler months and could save your life

COVID-19 booster uptake among people aged 75 and older, with coverage dropping from 38.2 per cent to just 26.2 per cent over the past year. Dr McMullen also raised the alarm about declining vaccination rates in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, a trend that could exacerbate health risks during winter. Highlighting the power of vaccination, new data from Western Australia showed its RSV immunisation program led to a 57 per cent reduction in infant hospitalisations, saving the state an estimated $6.2 to 6.9 million in health costs. “These results show what’s possible when we get vaccination right,” Dr McMullen said. “More babies are being kept out of hospital because their parents chose to protect them.” Tweed Shire residents unsure about which vaccinations are right for them are encouraged to speak to their GP. Despite widespread misinformation on social media, GPs remain the most trusted source of expert, personalised advice. “The evidence is clear — vaccines work. But vaccines sitting in fridges don’t save lives,” Dr McMullen said.

AS WINTER tightens its grip on the Tweed Shire, health authorities are sounding the alarm over a steady rise in respiratory illnesses, including a new COVID-19 subvariant and a surge in influenza and RSV cases that are putting vulnerable residents, especially our elderly and young children at greater risk. The cold snap that swept across the region on Sunday, June 8, marked not only the start of the frosty months ahead, but also an increase in hospitalisations linked to the COVID-19 NB.1.8.1 strain, a sublineage of Omicron that descends from the JN.1 variant, which the current vaccines are designed to protect against. The Australian Medical Association (AMA) is urging residents across the Tweed to prioritise their winter vaccinations by speaking with their GP about COVID-19 boosters, the annual flu shot and RSV immunisations, particularly for those in high-risk groups such as infants, older adults and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Australian Medical Association President Dr Danielle McMullen said the timing is critical, with RSV infections climbing since the start of the year and COVID booster uptake alarmingly low. “New COVID-19 strains continue to circulate, leading to increased hospitalisations. Regular boosters are essential for maintaining protection against severe illness,” Dr McMullen said. Nationally, influenza vaccine coverage is sitting at just 24.24 per cent, with coverage among people under 50 falling to a concerning 14 per cent. Even more troubling is the sharp decline in

Thrive with Lifebridge By Jonathon Howard

FOR MORE than 30 years, Lifebridge Australia has been a steadfast presence in the Tweed Shire, offering vital support to older residents and people living with a disability by helping them stay active, independent and connected to what matters most in their lives. Now, the community-based organisation is entering an exciting new chapter, announcing the launch of seven new group programs across the Tweed aimed at enhancing wellbeing, building confidence and deepening social connection. “These programs are an exciting step forward in empowering our older community,” Lifebridge CEO Bronwyn Mitchell told The Weekly. “We’re here to champion independence, celebrate strengths and ensure no one walks the journey alone, so that every person feels capable, connected and deeply valued.” From creative arts and gentle movement classes to stimulating day trips and interest-based social groups, Lifebridge’s new offerings reflect its long-held belief that true wellbeing is rooted in community, purpose and choice. Ms Mitchell said all Lifebridge programs are grounded in Montessori principles and positive psychology, focusing on the strengths and interests of each individual. By promoting autonomy, meaning and joy, the organisation supports people of all abilities to flourish in their own way. “Whether it’s reconnecting with a passion, learning something new, or simply sharing a laugh with peers, Lifebridge aims to create safe, inclusive spaces that uplift and inspire,” Ms Mitchell said. As a locally run, not-for-profit organisation,

Lifebridge has been part of the social fabric of the Tweed Shire for more than three decades. Through that time the Lifebridge team has built a trusted reputation for supporting older people and those living with disability to live independently, maintain mobility, and engage meaningfully with their community. This new phase of programming builds on that legacy, ensuring Lifebridge continues to respond to the evolving needs and aspirations of the community it proudly serves. “To our incredible community, thank you for your continued support and trust,” Ms Mitchell said. “The next chapter is here, and we can’t wait to share it with you.” To learn more about the new programs or to speak with a friendly member of the Lifebridge team, please phone: 1800 043 186 or visit lifebridge.org.au.

Locals represent at Surfest By Jo Kennett

FINGAL HEAD’S Dane Henry had a good run at the Burton Automotive Newcastle Surfest, winning the trials against some tough local competition at Merewether Beach, and continuing through to the second round of the main event before going down. Surfest is the first event in the 2025 Challenger Series and proved again that no matter who he is up against, the Kingy Boardriders surfer never looks out of place. In the Round of 80, Dane came up against Ollie Zietz, the talented son of Hawaiian pro Seabass, veteran Kiwi campaigner Billy Stairmand and Basque prodigy Adur Amatriain. It was small, clean and offshore and Dane sat patiently waiting for a decent wave for much of the start. When he did kick off, the national junior champion caught a flurry of waves, most with airs and some big, vertical turns which saw him take the lead with 6.1 which he backed up with a 5.17. The judges seem to appreciate his fast, dynamic surfing, giving him the win, with Amatriain edging out Ollie Zietz. In the Round of 64, Dane was up against Winter Vincent, Jordy Lawler and South Africa’s Adin Masencamp. Dane came out firing catching two waves in the first couple of minutes without scoring much in the way of points. Then he did one big turn for a 4.83, backed it up with a little air and a backhand hit for a 4.13, but despite riding way more waves than

his competitors, Dane couldn’t find the section he was hunting for. Winter Vincent didn’t get a wave for ages and then just cruised in with a couple of massive carves and took the top spot, with Jordy Lawler choosing a similar strategy and coming in second. Dane stars in Dunno, a surf film featuring the new generation of mind-blowing talent, many who featured at Stab High Japan, a wave pool air contest held in May. Julian Wilson also made it into the finals of what was an infinitely better event to watch than the regular wave pool contests, which might make the WSL some cash but aren’t popular with fans. It had more of a skate contest vibe, with lots of encouragement and mucking around between competitors, including open winner Mikey Wright tackling junior winner Hughie Vaughan, with a great time had by all. Sierra Kerr won her finals against Olympic skate star Sky Brown, one of the skate pro’s who have taken their skills to the waves. Water’s a lot softer than concrete and their athleticism and fearlessness pays big dividends in pro surfing. Viewers were calling it “one of the best things to happen in surfing in many years.” It’s scary how fast the “new” generation is being replaced by younger skate-inspired talent like groms winner Eden Walla. New WSL boss Ryan Crosby might look like another marketing man (he worked on Call of Duty and at Netflix) but he gets what surf fans want and has upended the league,

Dane Henry on his way to the win in the Burton Pro Newcastle Surfest CS trials

going back to the competition of old that ends at Pipe, with no final five, no elimination rounds, no mid-year cut, more women and all competitors returning to compete for the win at Pipe. Great to see local Jared De Thier-

ry on the beach at Newy with Andy King watching his charge Jett Schilling blast his way through to the Round of 32. The former Tweed Coast Raider is working with some of the best up and coming surfers from around the world

and you couldn’t find a nicer, more passionate high performance coach. Also great to see Narrabeen surfer Jess Starling, who lives at Caba, doing excellent commentary for the CT at Margies and the CS at Newcastle.

Cricks Tweed have donated an all-new Renault Trafic van to Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Retreat

Cricks donates new van By Jonathon Howard

IN A heartfelt gesture of community support, Cricks Tweed has donated a brandnew Renault Trafic van to Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Retreat (TPS) this month, one of the region’s most respected not-for-profit organisations supporting palliative care patients. Valued at $58,700, the van was officially presented by Cricks manager Ryan Harding to TPS president Meredith Dennis (OAM), who was overwhelmed by the donation, describing her feelings as: “absolutely elated, thrilled and humbled” by the generosity of the act. “It’s fabulous to see such meaningful support from a local business,” she said. “We plan to use the van to deliver medical equipment to palliative care patients throughout the Tweed Shire and it was

great timing as we needed a new van for these important deliveries. “TPS is the only organisation in the region providing this vital service.” The donation follows a $10,000 contribution from Cricks to TPS earlier in April, reinforcing the car dealership’s deepening commitment to the local community. “We spoke to Meredith about what was needed at TPS and she mentioned, mostly in jest, that a new van would be helpful for transporting medical equipment,” Mr Harding said. “She never expected us to actually go out and make it happen, but we knew how valuable it would be.” Also present at the handover was Cricks team member Oscar Harrison, who shared his emotional experience at Wedgetail Retreat with his late grandmother Pamela Charlton, and described Wedgetail as a

“godsend to the shire”. Their presence underscored the real and personal impact of the organisation’s work in the community. The new van is expected to significantly improve TPS’s capacity to support patients at home, ensuring timely access to essential medical equipment and care. Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Retreat is entirely community funded and relies on generous support from locals and businesses like Cricks to continue its mission of compassionate end-of-life care. “This van is more than just a vehicle,” Ms Dennis said. “It’s a lifeline for our patients and a symbol of the strength of our community.” To find out more about Cricks and its outstanding local range, visit the friendly team at 146 Minjungbal Dr, Tweed Heads South, or phone: (07) 5506 0900.

32 NRL Tipping Competition Thursday, June 12, 2025

BIG PAPA playing his 300th and what a performance it was. I love these feel good stories of young kids chasing dreams and becoming icon’s due to working hard. All at the same time being a wonderfully humble human being and a considerate person. I have heard many stories about how Papalii takes care of his immediate and extended family and has done for many years. It’s not an easy life in the front row for an NRL club, origin or Australia but Josh Papalii has done it very well and is now in elite status for the Raiders. His double and the goal kick were just icing on the cake. DCE is gone! Big news but not surprising really given the form of Dearden and the need for Qld to find points. Chez has been a marvel for Qld for many years and captained his state with aplomb but father time catches up to all of us and the most brutal arena of them all State of Origin holds no prisoners.

The series is on the line, game 2 will be awesome! The black jersey from the Broncos on the weekend was all time. I loved it, it was like watching the All Blacks in the NRL. Not only is it an extremely important message about mental health and their association with the Black Dog institute, the club and players looked like a new team. Admittedly the Titans missed the kick and the game was over at half time but fellow 300 gamer Adam Reynolds was treated to a quality performance to acknowledge his wonderful achievement as well. Not so great was Manly walking off before the Malcolm Reilly presentation that

has occurred between the two clubs to acknowledge Reilly for his contribution to both clubs and given his ill health the Eagles needed to do better regardless of the score. I want to publicly acknowledge how impressed I am with Isaiya Katoa for the Dolphins. As a young half his form is insane at the moment and he is a wonderful role model for young halves learning how to play direct and with tempo. I had a bit to do with Isaiya in his younger years and he is just as impressive off the field as he is on it. The Warriors continue to fly high and are sailing through the origin period well. They are a genuine smokey after once again highlighting some real deficiencies in the Sharks. See you at the footy. Quinny (Image below by @NRL)

NOW OR Never: Climate Chaos is the fourth event in the This Stuff Matters series at M|Arts in Murwillumbah. Join Laura Conlon on Thursday, June 19, at 6pm as she leads a conversation with Professor Ian Lowe and Dr Jean Renouf on how climate change is reshaping our lives emotionally, psychologically, and practically. Find out how individuals, families, and communities can adapt and act to meet this challenge. Professor Lowe, a leading environmentalist and author brings decades of climate expertise to the conversation. He is a former President of the Australian Conservation Foundation and an advisor to the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Doctor Renouf, an academic, firefighter, and founder of Plan C and Safer Future, will share his knowledge of community resilience and responses to climate disruption. This Stuff Matters is a public discussion series presented by Politics of Life Inc, a community organisation that Doctor Richard Hil founded to spark bold, honest public dialogue on today’s most urgent challenges, from climate and democracy to justice and technology. Dr Hil emphasises the importance of this conversation: “This discussion between two leading climate action advocates takes place against the backdrop of a worsening environmental crisis, intensifying concerns over the lack of global action on greenhouse gas emissions, our ongoing dependence on fossil fuels, and escalating crackdowns on climate activists. The event raises the critical question of how civic society can build stronger and more resilient community-based responses to confront this emergency head-on.” “There’s no avoiding the fact that we’re going to experience more extreme weather events, and that these will fundamentally reshape the world around us, forcing communities to adapt,

infrastructure to be reimagined, and, in some cases, entire populations to relocate to safer areas,” he tells the Weekly. “The sooner we begin an honest conversation about our collective response, the better. “We must take this existential threat far more seriously and demand that governments prioritise bold, transformative policies that fortify our communities and prepare us for the changes ahead. As the title of the talk reminds us: it’s now or never.” Tickets available at the door or online https:// www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1405910 Now or Never: Climate Chaos. Thursday, June 19. Doors open 6pm | Music by Andrew Malynowsky at 6:45pm | Discussion at 7:00pm, followed by a Q&A.

ed a screening in Federal. On Wednesday, he left Murwillumbah in the dark at 5am to cycle 226km alone to Grafton, arriving at 7pm. Another community supper and then cycling to Coffs the next day. The Weekly asked Muzafar about his gruelling schedule, and if he ever feels like giving up. “Absolutely not!” he said. “I get energy from the local community when I arrive, their energy and appreciation help me to keep going. “I think about my cause — education. I was a refugee. I could not complete my education. I’m inspired by the girls in the underground schools in Afghanistan who are so brave.” And where does his preternatural calm and compassion come from? “I learned how to become calm in the face of persecution,” he said. “My calm comes from the terrible things I have seen. I have carried dead bodies of my friends in my arms. I have picked up pieces of people who have died in a suicide attack — the sight of blood and dead bodies, the smell of explosives. I have been interrogated by the Taliban. I have seen so much. “My motive behind this ride is love, my love for my country, my people, the refugee community. This love gives me energy, I want to spread this love. We will see the magic of love. We will make things possible.” The Staging Post is available for free on YouTube.

MUZAFAR ALI and his companions had been riding in the wind and torrential rain from Brisbane since 6am on Sunday, June 1. They finally arrived wet and exhausted from the 156km ride around 7pm to a cheering crowd in the Jesse McMillan Hall in Murwillumbah. A Hazara refugee from Afghanistan, Muzafar is riding 4000km from Maleny to Adelaide in a month in order to raise funds and awareness for refugee education and underground school for girls in Afghanistan. The charismatic 43-year-old and the other cyclists had some dinner while there was a screening of an excerpt from The Staging Post, a film about a group of refugees including Muzafar stuck in Cisarua, Indonesia, while they wait and hope for refugee status and a visa to a third country. Unable to work or study, the group, led by Muzafar and Khadim Dai, started a school which inspired a refugee education revolution. After the film, Muzafar spoke about his life in Afghanistan where he had been a political analyst for the UN until he had to flee with his wife and five-year-old daughter in 2012. The family were given visas and arrived in Australia in 2015. Muzafar was a soft-spoken and very compelling speaker, and answered questions from the audience thoughtfully. On Monday, Muzafar went to Uki Primary School and met with children from year four. He gently asked them questions, such as do you know where Afghanistan is, how did you hear about it? He told them about how girls are not allowed to go to school in Afghanistan beyond year six. The students were fascinated and excited to meet a real refugee from a far away country. On Monday and Tuesday, he visited six schools, gave three radio interviews, and host-

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken

Keep out of cane farms with vehicles and humans on foot is very high, when the operators of tractors and cane harvesters are not aware of people in the vicinity. The solution to eliminating this risk is simple: “Do not trespass on private property!” Also of concern is the use of hard stand gravelled areas where the large aluminium cane transport containers are placed, usually adjacent to public roadways. These areas known as ‘cane pads’ are not for the hoons to do burnouts or for those tossers to illegally dump their rubbish. Thankfully most people are intelligent enough to do the right thing. Please keep off the cane pads and do not enter cane fields to walk along the cane tracks or ride your bike. It can be very dangerous especially during the harvest season. I extend best wishes to our fellow growers, harvesting crews and sugar mill personnel. We look forward to a safe and productive season, with the prospect of a better crop next year. Kind regards to all Tweed Valley Weekly readers. Rob Hawken

93253 Sunshine Sugar HP

94193 Imperial Hotel QP - Dusty Rich

THE SUGAR cane harvest in the Condong Mill area is scheduled to commence on Monday, June 16. However, this is very dependent on continuing fine weather. The very wet ground conditions are a major concern to the growers and harvester operators, and the harvest may be delayed for several days if the fields do not dry out sufficiently. It is at this time that I wish to bring to the attention of everyone, particularly people who live in areas adjacent to the cane growing areas, a serious concern that cane growers have regarding members of the public entering private property farmland. Some people believe they are entitled to trespass on private property such as cane field headlands and hauling tracks. Joggers, day walkers, motorbike riders (often unlicensed children) and motor vehicles do not have express permission from the landholder to enter these cane field areas and do so at great personal risk to themselves and others. Tall cane means that blind corners are everywhere in these fields and the risk of collisions

Ag e nt o f th e w e e k

By Jo Kennett THIS EDITION’S Agent of the Week is Paul Sheehan, a sales and marketing specialist at LJ Hooker Coolangatta Tweed Heads with an amazing past. Paul won the Rate My Agent (RMA) award for Agent of the Year for Banora Point for fours years in a row, the latest in a long line of awards including the RMA Most Trusted Agent last year and the RMA Agent of the Year for three years running, not a bad record when you consider that he only got into the industry by accident. Described by his clients as ‘outstanding’, ‘bright, cheerful and positive’, ‘helpful and professional’ and providing ‘first class service’, Paul has won plenty of kudos in a tough and competitive industry. We caught up with Paul to hear more about his life and get a few real estate tips.

What inspired you to go into real estate? I was doing property photography for a few agencies, when some of the principals said I should be selling property and using my people and photography skills as a combination.

What is your favourite part about being an agent? Helping people is what it is all about for me. I absolutely love it.

Open Homes

Hot property

Before you were a real estate agent what was the most interesting/unusual job you had?

ARE YOU retiring or downsizing and after an easy care, low maintenance lifestyle in a prime, walkable location? Then this week’s Hot Property might be just the thing for you. Number 7 Wanda Court is a three bedroom, two bathroom single-level home in the much sought-after Lake Kimberley estate in the heart of Banora Point. The main bedroom has an ensuite and walk-in robe, there is air con and fans throughout and the open plan living includes a stunning kitchen. With two covered entertainment areas, a double lockup garage and room for a motorhome, it doesn’t get much better than this. Solar panels and a garden shed are just a couple of the features of this lovely home, all within walking distance to shops, Club Banora, golf course, lawn bowls and tennis courts. This meticulously maintained home is for sale with LJ Hooker’s Paul Sheehan with a price guide of $1,120,000 to $1,195,000.

My resume is huge from being a chef, an island resort manager, a TV cameraperson and a TV director. I had a media company specialising in underwater and aerial photography. I also had a DJ/ entertainment business just to name a few without boring anyone.

What’s the hottest segment of the Tweed Shire property market at the moment?

The whole area is absolutely buzzing; there’s no pinpointing a certain segment.

What’s the biggest changes across the market over the past 12 months?

With the election over and recent rate cuts , the buyer activity has given consumers confidence again.

Who are you seeing buying (first home owners, sea changers from the city, people from overseas) and what type of sellers do you have (downsizers, people cashing in and moving elsewhere)?

It really is a mixture of all you just mentioned for both buyers and sellers

How can people get a foot on the property ladder?
