About CommunityPete
CommunityPete is an independent Australian community platform. We share local news, community updates, awareness stories, and opportunities to help others. We are not a news organisation, legal service, medical provider, or emergency response agency.
Our main community hub is on Facebook. Use of that platform is also subject to Meta’s terms and community standards.
