The Westsider newspaper has launched its new-look website!

This digital platform will help increase access to this award-winning news source for Melbourne’s west and complement the existing monthly print edition.

Local Impact is thrilled to support the continued development of this program that gives opportunities to writers, photographers, citizen scientists, artists and others to tell their stories and amplify local news that impacts Melbourne’s west.

“The Westsider is a vital, independent voice in Melbourne’s west. It’s a vibrant platform for local news, stories and events, available both online and in print. If you are looking for investigative articles, sports updates, book reviews, or even seasonal recipes, the Westsider has a diverse range of new stories published every month.” – Wal Wiersma, Committee Chair of the Westsider
