Our small team of reporters churn out the days work.  Chief Reporter and owner Lee Scanlon (top) soaks up the famous Westport sun that always shines.  Teresa Smith and Becky Manawatu (photo to come) keep the busy newsroom ticking over covering everything from council meetings, court stories, human interest, acts of nature and other local stories.

The News has a small but highly motivated team who crank out the daily work.  Every member of staff is trained in most aspects of the daily running of the newspaper and cover for each other when someone is away for any reason.

Our hard working despatch crew who insert the pages and also deliver the daily rag around the wider Westport area.

Some of our dedicated runners who deliver around the Westport township in rain, hail or snow.
