Passionate about your community and ready to make a difference?

Local government elections are happening this October across all 29 Tasmanian councils.

If you’re considering nominating for councillor, mayor or deputy mayor, now is the perfect time to learn what’s involved.

The Local Government Association of Tasmania has released a Candidate Handbook covering eligibility, the nomination process and campaigning. It’s a great place to start.

πŸ“£β€œWe’re people too. We have our opinions on what needs to change.”

Young people from across northern Tasmania joined the Tasmanian Youth Forum North Regional Roadshow in George Town in March 2026 to share what matters most in their communities.

Key issues raised included mental health, safety, safe community spaces for young people, service access, and the importance of young people being heard in decisions that affect their lives.

Thank you to George Town Council and the George Town Youth Impact Council for hosting and supporting TYF North, and to the elected representatives who joined throughout the day to engage directly with young people.
