TO our loyal readers and valued advertisers,
As another year draws to a close, we want to take a moment to reflect on what makes the Redlands and Bayside such an extraordinary place to live, work and thrive.
At the heart of it all is you — the engaged community who reads our stories, shares your own, and supports the local businesses that keep our region vibrant.
Across 2025, the Redland Bayside News has covered the big moments, the small victories, the debates shaping our future and the achievements that showcase the best of our bayside suburbs.
Whether it was celebrating community champions, diving into local issues, or shining a light on the events and people who make our region unique, your readership has reminded us why local journalism matters more than ever.
To our advertisers, thank you for your trust, creativity and ongoing partnership.
Your support not only keeps our pages turning — it strengthens the local economy, creates opportunities for residents, and helps ensure independent, community-focused journalism continues to thrive.
We are proud to champion the businesses that form the backbone of our community, and we look forward to supporting your success in the year ahead.
As Christmas approaches, we hope the season brings you joy, connection and moments of well-deserved rest.
May your days be filled with family, friends, laughter and the magic that only the festive season can bring.
For those working through the holidays — especially in essential services, health care, retail and emergency response — we offer our heartfelt thanks.
On behalf of the entire Redland Bayside News team, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a safe, prosperous and inspiring 2026.
We can’t wait to continue telling your stories in the new year.
Warmest wishes to all.
Andrew Jefferson
Group Editor
