New Digital Hub To Unite The Northern Beaches Community

A new digital platform is set to enhance connection, consultation, and community involvement in the Northern Beaches region, following the official launch of the Northern Beaches Community Network website.

Unveiled by Member for Whitsunday Amanda Camm, the website provides residents with an accessible hub to stay informed, engage with local initiatives, and contribute to shaping the future of the region. With contact details for local organisations, upcoming meeting dates, and an open community survey, the website is designed to be a central point for collaboration and communication.

Ms Camm said it was a brilliant way to help drive meaningful improvements right across the region.

“The launch of the Northern Beaches Community Network website is wonderful for our region, particularly when it comes to helping promote and advocate for enhanced services such as infrastructure and expanding facilities to meet the evolving needs of our growing community,” Ms Camm said.

“This is a great example of a grassroots movement, driven by a collective passion for fostering positive change within the Northern Beaches area.

“I look forward to seeing how the website progresses and encourage everyone in our community to get online and check it out.”

Co-Founder Rebecca Cooper said the formation of the Northern Beaches Community Network and the launch of the website is a pivotal step in enhancing communication, consultation and connection in the region.

“This will form the recipe for a vibrant, active and invested community, where we can achieve great collective outcomes together,” Ms Cooper said.

“The website will also serve as a great resource for welcoming new people to our area and letting them know all the great things they can be a part of in our community”.

Co-Founder Antoinette Du Toit also noted that the website will help bring people together and make local involvement simple and accessible.

“Our new website makes it easier than ever for the Northern Beaches community to connect, collaborate, and support one another,” Ms Du Toit enthused.

“This website is just the beginning – a first step in building a stronger, more connected Northern Beaches community.

“It’s a place where locals can come together, share ideas, and shape the future of our vibrant region.”
