The week that was...

Bulimba Ferry Terminal 12/1

It is amazing just how much a week can change everything. I can't believe the events that have unfolded here in Brisbane and out West. I am so lucky that I have not been affected by the flooding in our suburb but is it just heartbreaking to see those that have not been so fortunate.

Driving to work today there were just piles and piles of peoples lives laid out on the sidewalk. It is hard to imagine the damage.

Luckily the spirit of community has come alive and everyone is out doing their bit, however small. I thought I might share a few ways you can help those in need:


Baked Relief.
Are arranging food and drinks for those out in the mud. If you think you can do some baking or deliver food please check out their website.

Premiers Flood Appeal.
Is where you can donate money to the Premiers Disaster Relief Appeal.

  1. glad to hear that you are okay and not badly affected.
    Thank-you so much for posting the link to 'baked relief'. I had not heard of it before and have just spent a good 10-15 mins reading up. I have been wanting to find a way to support and this is so practical!
