Date Time Support for bushfire affected communities extended to end of 2021 Recovery Support Services for those affected by last season’s unprecedented bushfires have been extended until the end of 2021 by the Federal Government and the NSW Government. Recovery Support Services link people to their own personalised recovery support worker, who can help navigate and access services and disaster assistance. Australian Government Minister for Agriculture, Drought and Emergency Management David Littleproud said the extension would ensure long-term support is available for impacted communities throughout their recovery. “We’re pleased to extend this funding for another 12 months as these locally based services provide an important link between survivors and the support they need as they recover,” Minister Littleproud said.
