About Murray Bridge News
Stories create community. Without shared stories – the experiences we have in common – we’d all just be people who live near each other.
That’s why local news is important.
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 newsletter, on this website and via digital signage in the community.
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.
