This is a place for local stories to be shared about what we faced during the bushfires of the summer of 2019/2020 and afterwards, including the COVID-19 pandemic.
There is much grief in our community from these two events. The Listening Post is a place where we can share our stories and celebrate our resilience.
Become part of the Listening Post project by experiencing our stories, contributing your story, or telling others about our project. The stories gathered here are the stories of our communities.
