As the region's leading newspaper both in circulation and readership, the Penrith Press prides itself on its passionate commitment to covering all aspects of the community it serves.

The Penrith Press is always there: whether it's for the Little Athletics calling for new members, for the opening of the multi-million dollar redevelopment of the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre, or the Panthers' latest NRL match.

A self-contained community with fierce pride, Penrith boasts a leading teaching hospital, its own university, recreational facilities such as the Nepean River and the International Regatta Centre and comprehensive retail, education, housing and transport services.

An Olympic city and a gateway to the Blue Mountains and the Central West, Penrith is one of the fastest growing residential centres in NSW with population forecast to grow to 200,000 by 2010.

Established in 1947, and now published Tuesday and Friday, the Penrith Press plays a dominant role in community life and the city's development.

We have sections covering entertainment, sport, real estate, motoring and lifestyle and our team of reporters and photographers strive to give readers a voice and to represent our community in every aspect of its daily life.
