Australian Government Drought Bus and Murray-Darling Basin Drought Bus
Drought Buses will be travelling around the worst drought affected areas in rural New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, South Australia, Queensland, and the Murray-Darling Basin to let rural communities know about the services the Australian Government is providing.
People will be able to speak to someone about the assistance available, including experts who know about working on the land, financial counsellors and social workers, and everyone in between.
Free information on tackling depression in tough times is available on the Drought Buses from beyondblue: the national depression initiative.
