How Council is part of your everyday
From turning on the tap to relaxing in a local park, Council is part of your everyday. It might be your child’s swimming lesson, a visit to the community centre, or a ride along the Tweed section of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail. Council services are woven into the places, programs and moments that help you live well in the Tweed. We deliver 53 services that help make the Tweed a great place to live, work and thrive.
Share your story this Local Government Week
To celebrate Local Government Week 2025, we’re inviting you to share how a Tweed Shire Council service has made a difference in your life. It could be a local park where your family gets together, support you received during a flood or storm, help with a local issue, or a favourite event, program or service. Maybe it’s your child’s swimming lesson, a ride along the Tweed section of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail, the famous waterslide at Murwillumbah Pool, a visit to the Tweed Regional Museum or Gallery, or a peaceful afternoon walk along your favourite footpath. Big or small - we’d love to hear your story.
Tell us your story:
- What do you appreciate most about it?
- How has it made a difference in your daily life or community?
- Why is it meaningful to you?

Why I love Pottsville Creek
I really appreciate how Tweed Shire Council has kept the Pottsville Creek beach access natural and simple. It’s peaceful, with the bushland and trees preserved, just a basic shower and nearby toilets no overdevelopment or infrastructure. The bushland walk is beautiful and the community’s toy library for kids adds a lovely, local touch. It’s the perfect balance of nature and community.
