The Bugle Bulletin: Deputy PM visits, local concerts rock but Hawks grounded

This week's Bugle Bulletin brings you the best of the week’s local stories.


Our lead story is about Grand Pacific Health being selected to run Nowra’s new Medicare Urgent Care Clinic, bringing the long-awaited service closer to opening.



Set for Scenic Drive near Shoalhaven Hospital, the clinic will offer fully bulk-billed care for non-life-threatening conditions for extended hours seven days a week.


Acting Prime Minister Richard Marles, Health Minister Mark Butler and Gilmore MP Fiona Phillips were in attendance for the official announcement.



The Kiama and Minnamurra Lions used their community initiative to help the Illawarra Local Aboriginal Land Council to cut the grass at the former police residence property on Terralong Street.


While the Gerringong Co-Op was buzzing on Saturday night as Starshine lit up the venue with a high-energy show, A Tribute to Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac.


Fans sang along to favourites like Rhiannon, Landslide and Go Your Own Way, with the band’s powerhouse lineup - including former members of “Dreams” and Las Vegas performer Nikki Canale - recreating the magic of the Fleetwood Mac era.



In sport, the Illawarra Hawks' NBL title defence is looking shaky after they slumped to their 10th loss in 15 matches when they went down to last-placed Cairns Taipans.


At The Bugle, we’re committed to pairing impactful visuals with meaningful local storytelling - delivering a news experience that’s informative, entertaining, and deeply connected to our community.
