Small Comforts
- Words by Peppermint
Today is a day for thoughts and prayers for our Tassie neighbours as bushfire continues to devastate their island. All around the country people are doing their bit, including our friends at Cultiver who are running a Handmade Blanket Drive, calling for much needed donations of bedding, blankets and other comfy things for bushfire victims. Drop your donations off at Cultiver’s Ipswich store from today, or make a direct donation to Red Cross Disaster Relief and help support Tasmania to get back on its feet.
