Eumundi Voice loves sharing stories of kindness and community spirit, so we were delighted to see this recent post on the Eumundi Community Facebook page.
“I was out walking my dog this morning when I came across a tree blocking the footpath on Memorial Dr. My dog and I had to manoeuvre around it and step out onto the road. Next minute, a young man pulled up on the other side of the road, hopped out of his car, and came over to move the tree off the road and pathway. He even snapped off branches to make the footpath clear. It was so lovely to see such a genuinely kind and helpful person in our community. I thanked him and told him what a good citizen he was. He modestly replied, “Just a neighbour.” ... See MoreSee Less

Noosa Council in partnership with Qld Police is continuing targeted efforts to tackle illegal camping across the shire, focusing on protecting public spaces and responding to community concerns.
Council’s Director of Regulation and Development Richard MacGillivray said the campaign targets visitors and others who deliberately ignore local regulations by using public areas as free campgrounds, and is not aimed at people experiencing homelessness.
“When people are genuinely experiencing homelessness, our priority is to connect them with support services rather than take enforcement action,” said Richard.
Recent joint patrols at known hotspots including Tingira Cresc, The Spit, Dog Beach and National Park precincts resulted in 37 infringement notices and 1 caution.
Noosa Council has received almost 300 complaints about illegal overnight camping so far this year, down from more than 400 complaints at the same point in 2025.
In addition to enforcement, Noosa Council is working with camping websites and social media platforms to improve awareness of legal accommodation options. The 2026-27 budget also includes a trial of mobile Licence Plate Recognition technology to deter illegal camping in hotspot areas. ... See MoreSee Less

For decades the Tour de France was exclusive to men, only rectified as recently as 2022 when the Tour de France Femmes made its debut as an annual event for women cyclists. The 2026 Tour de France Femmes runs from 1-9 August and covers 1,175km through Switzerland and France, including Mount Ventoux, a notoriously difficult climb.
The idea of having a women’s Tour de France had been around for decades, and a one-off event was held in France in 1955. From 1984 to 2009, annual women’s races were held under differing names but were not under the Tour de France umbrella. They suffered from lack of financial stability and poor media coverage.
In 2013 a group of professional women cyclists began lobbying for a women’s Tour de France. The following year, Tour de France organisers agreed to a 1-day race for women known as La Course, on the Champs-Élysées in advance of the final stage of the men’s race. From 2014-2021 La Course was held in different locations around France but always in conjunction with the men’s Tour de France. While the women’s race was initially praised for shining a light on women’s cycling, it was criticised for not allowing the women to cycle a full course and for not having a challenging enough route.
In 2022 the organisers of Tour de France agreed to a Tour de Frances Femmes that covered 8 days of cycling, with identical classifications to the men and the yellow, green, polka dot and white jerseys.
Key Australian cyclists to watch out for in the 2026 Tour de Femmes include Amanda Spratt – one of the Australian greats in her final season – and crucial support riders Lauretta Hanson and Mackenzie Coupland. ... See MoreSee Less
