A 40-year-old George Town man has been charged with multiple offences after the seizure of 16 illegal firearms, including a collection of replica weapons. Police say the guns, including imitation sniper rifles and assault rifles, were found after officers saw "items of interest" through a window on the property. The man will face court at a later date.

A gala has been held in Greater Hobart for women affected by domestic and family abuse. The event began with a pampering session, with donated gowns available for the women to wear, and their hair, make-up and nails done free of charge by professionals donating their time. The organisers are hopeful the gala will become an annual event, and that it could even expand interstate. A gown worn with a pair of Blundstone boots isn't a sight you'd typically expect for a cocktail event.

The Glenorchy branch of the Country Women's Association has re-formed, but this time it's seeking to be more inclusive of women from diverse backgrounds, and engage closely with recent arrivals. Members say it's time the organisation reflected the diversity of the community they live in, breaking away from the stereotype the CWA is just about "baking scones". The Glenorchy branch will continue outreach efforts, promoting inclusion and multicultural participation to strengthen community ties.
