We will bring you the lastest on the bushfire recovery, including communities that are starting to rebuild after the devastating summer fires, stories about the selfless volunteers who have travelled to the coast to help, government grants which will assist residents up and down the coast, as well as the incredibly brave people who faced the fires head on and have now returned home.
The South Coast News will also cover important issues around the tourism and produce industries, first hit by fire, then flood and now the caronavirus pandemic, and how it will recover from the shocking start to 2020.
We will also bring readers the latest in crime, development, transport, environment, education, health and sport from the area.
