More stories from the Northern Rivers flood fightback

We go back to our amazing story of Australians rallying together …when the authorities don’t offer the support they should….and the struggle for residents of the north east of NSW devastated by floods.

Jack Bailey, a northern rivers local has been hiking in to some of the communities that have been cut off since last Monday; Sophie Marsh has also been volunteering in the clean-up and says it’s heartening to see so many locals pitching in to help; and Harry Dudley who’s been helping his neighbours around the Mullumbimby, South Golden, New Brighton areas.

This is an incredibly inspiring story. While NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has conceded rescue efforts should have been more readily available….the locals are rolling up their sleeves to lend a hand. Part Two of our amazing expose of the flood clean-up in north east NSW.
