The unseasonal dry weather has put additional financial pressure on families on the outskirts of the region as they had to purchase water supplies to get through one of the driest periods on record.

Water Carters have told FLAT MATTERS it has been an exceptionally busy time as tankers delivered water across the region.

Coliban Water reports that water demand at the standpipe in Kangaroo Flat reflects the
impact of the dry spell.

For Joan Harper, a day at Stella Anderson Nursing Home is the highlight of her week.

A regular catch up as part of Bendigo Health’s Day Respite Program allows her to socialise while she does what she loves – colouring and gardening.

The partnership with Bendigo Health’s Carer Support and Residential services, offers a respite program that is as much for the hard-working carers as their loved ones who need support.
