You may have noticed the Brighton Community News has had a facelift for the first bi-monthly edition of 2022. The new Brighton Community News is full of good news stories and showcases the people, businesses, community groups and sporting clubs that make our area great. In our next edition we will introduce an event calendar with listings of what’s on in our local area.

We will share bigger picture Council planning for the future, and updates on the initiatives and projects we’re working on. There’s even some fun activities and facts to keep your mind active! Readers are encouraged to contribute to the magazine by sharing stories, photographs and local tips via communitynews@brighton.tas.gov.au.

Our new editor Steph Williams has worked with us to develop look and feel that’s easy and enjoyable to read. All the stories will also be on our Brighton Community News website and shared via our Brighton Council Facebook page. After growing up in Devonport Steph left to study and work, and returned with her young family a few years ago to settle in Hobart. Steph is experienced in creating community publications and looks forward to hearing your feedback about the refreshed Brighton Community News.
