Vast swathes of Australia are facing a long road to recovery after being devastated by bushfires and drought.
Australian Regional Tourism chair Coralie Bell says the best way to help is to pack your bags and visit. Before you head off, please check that it s safe to do so as some areas including roads and national parks may still be closed. Visiting regional Australia is not just an adventure, it s a way to really give back, Ms Bell says. Tourism plays an important role in creating and supporting jobs, but it also celebrates culture, stories and the essence of who we are it s important socially as well as economically.
