About The Northern Rivers Times: Your Trusted Voice in the Heart of Northern NSW

Founders: Sharon Bateman & Jeff Gibbs
At The Northern Rivers Times, we are more than just a regional newspaper; we are the beating heart of the Northern Rivers community. Founded by Sharon Bateman and Jeff Gibbs, our journey began during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Little did we know then that we

would weather not only the storm of a global crisis but also two unprecedented floods, emerging stronger with each adversity. A Voice for Businesses, Big and Small
Our mission has always been clear: to empower the businesses, both small and large, of the Northern Rivers region. We believe that every business has a unique story, and we're here to tell it. Through our pages, we've given voice to countless enterprises, helping them grow and flourish. We understand that a thriving business means a thriving community, and we take pride in our role as a catalyst for economic growth. Celebrating Arts, Culture, and Entertainment
Beyond the business realm, we've been a dedicated platform for the vibrant arts, crafts, and entertainment scene that enriches the Northern Rivers. We've showcased the talents of local artists, celebrated cultural festivals, and brought the community together through the magic of storytelling. A Local Family, Employing Locals
One of our proudest achievements is our commitment to our community. We are a local family, and we employ local talent, from journalists who unearth the hidden stories of our region to graphic designers who bring those stories to life. Our accounts and bookkeepers, delivery drivers, and layout artists are all your neighbours and friends, dedicated to serving the community they call home. Surviving the Storms, Building a Legacy
Our journey has been marked by resilience. We've stood strong in the face of adversity, emerging from two history-making floods with our commitment to our readers and our staff unwavering. During those trying times, we reached out to those who lost everything, extending a helping hand to rebuild homes and livelihoods. Leaving a Legacy for Generations to Come
Today, The Northern Rivers Times is not just a newspaper; it's a legacy. We tell it as it is, giving voice to the dreams, aspirations, and challenges of the Northern Rivers. As we continue to grow, we carry the hopes and dreams of future generations who will read our stories and be inspired by the spirit of this remarkable region. Thank you for being part of our journey. Together, we are The Northern Rivers Times, and we look forward to many more chapters of service, truth, and community. With Gratitude,

Sharon Bateman & Jeff Gibbs
