Severe & extreme heatwaves have claimed more lives than any other natural hazard in Aus. Over the next few days, severe heatwave conditions are forecast to continue across parts of #WA, the #NT, #Qld & far north #NSW. Find the latest #heatwave forecasts at bom.gov.au

Hunger shouldn’t be part of any family's story, but for too many, it is. 69% of single-parent households have faced food insecurity in the past year, and 41% are in severe need—skipping meals, reducing portions, or even going whole days without eating. #EndHunger #FoodInsecurity

Just when I thought I’d seen it all.

I couldn’t have said it better myself, @GrogsGamut We saw #foodsecurity improve when #JobSeeker was increased during COVID. When you live below the poverty line, reliable access to healthy food is completely out of reach without #foodrelief. And so it continues. #RaiseTheRate

We have joined forces with some of Australia's most important, and extremely vital, food and emergency relief providers, to urge the government to listen to the advice its own experts provided which was to increase working-age payments such as Jobseeker, permanently. #EndHunger

The @ABSStats National Health Survey reports 1 in 20 children ate recommended daily serve of veggies & 6% didn’t eat fruit daily. Before the predictable shaming of parents, let’s remember how many are struggling to afford fruit & veg right now. They’re in hot demand at #Foodbank.

The latest report from the Poverty and Inequality Partnership shows that 75% of people support lifting incomes for those with the last, while fewer than 25% could live on the existing rate of JobSeeker. bit.ly/communityattit… #povertyinAustralia #AusPol #Raisetherateforgood

I’ve never thought I’d be relieved to see “feels like 37°C”! End of play called at 10:25am. Summer sport has whole new meaning now! #heatwave #sydneyweather #cricketmum

Well that’s one way to end #schoolies! Just waited at the airport for 2 hours, only to have my son end up in Canberra thanks to the savage storm that hit Sydney tonight. Surfers Paradise high rise one night, Canberra Airport floor the next! #sydneystorm
