Introducing the 2026 TRLA Photography Competition


In 2026, the world celebrates the International Year of Volunteers 2026, recognising the incredible contribution volunteers make to communities everywhere—and here in our region, we see that impact every day. This year, Tamworth Regional Landcare Association’s Photography Competition invites you to capture those moments of generosity, connection, and quiet dedication through your lens.

From Landcare tree plantings and wildlife care, to healthcare support, community events, local committees, parkruns, and everyday acts of kindness—volunteers are at the heart of it all. Whether it’s muddy boots in the field, hands helping hands, or shared smiles over a job well done, we want to see the many ways people give their time and energy to support others and the environment.

So start snapping now! Keep your camera close and your eyes open—those powerful, authentic moments are happening all around you. Entries will open in September, giving you plenty of time to build a collection of images that celebrate the spirit of volunteering in our community.

Keep watching this space for more information!

Murray Darling Basin Authority Projects

 A team from the Murray Darling Basin Authority (including its CEO Andrew McConville and a number of key technical staff) visited a number of the project sites along Water Gully on 19 April. This visit was part of an information gathering exercise to inform the current revision of the Murray Darling Basin Plan due to be released later this year, with the group wishing to better understand water issues and water management options in the Upper Namoi watershed catchment area.

Our members often say that when you become part of Landcare, you’re not just joining a group, you’re becoming part of a family. The concept is so compatible with Australian culture it’s hard not to get involved! By becoming a TRLA member, you’ll be supporting our work, learning new skills, becoming part of the solution, and helping to make a difference for the future.
