We're keen to promote community-based events up and down our slice of the coast.

It might be a plug for a non-profit event, a fund-raising event for a charity or even a school-based community extravaganza - let us know. Either way, share your information with us and we'll publish it once we go through a verification check.

The best point of contact is to email or dedicated email: newstips@illawarramercury.com.au

Then just bookmark this page and keep coming back to it to see what's going on. The majority of content will be available for people without a subscription, but there may be the odd article behind the paywall.
