Ruth's Round-Up

Hi everyone!

I’m excited to introduce myself as I take on the journalist role for Burdekin in the interim. I’ll be in the region multiple times each week, so I’m looking forward to getting to know the community!

I’ve been with Life Publishing Group and Whitsunday Life Newspaper for nearly a year now. While Whitsunday Life has been my main focus, I’ve worked across all our newspapers behind the scenes. Before moving to Australia, I worked in Sky News’ political department in the UK, and during my time in Sydney, I pursued freelance journalism.

Passionate about the environment, I even launched the Ruth 2 Reef feature in Whitsunday Life, covering environmental stories in the Whitsundays. If you have any environmental news you’d love to share, I’d be thrilled to hear from you!

I can’t wait to dive into your beautiful region, both figuratively and literally, as I’m also a keen scuba diver! Knowing that your region boasts one of the world’s best dive sites is especially exciting.

If you see me out and about, please feel free to say hello! I always have time for a chat.

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Happy Reading!

Ruth
