About Murray Bridge News
Murray Bridge News is your independent local news service, established by journalist Peri Strathearn in 2020. We publish stories about what’s happening in South Australia’s Murraylands in a weekly email, on this website and via digital signage in the community. We also publish a quarterly magazine, Murraylands Life.
We’re all about:
Creating community by sharing local stories
Empowering local people to engage with community groups, events and opportunities
Being positive about our region and its future
Being local: collaborating with and advocating for local people, and being present in the community
Guaranteeing a local news service that is ethical, accessible and sustainable
As a family-owned business, the decisions which guide us are made in Murray Bridge, not Adelaide or Sydney; and 100 per cent of our profits remain in the community.
Murray Bridge News is produced on Ngarrindjeri country.
