Foodbank is the pantry to the charity sector in Australia.

Recovery Ride – A great success

On Saturday 17th April, the streets of Bruthen were filled with cyclists, families, market stalls, live music and all sorts of fun, in a bid to boost the local economy, still recovering from the bushfires of 2019-20.

Locals and visitors from Melbourne enjoyed a series of bike rides, supported by KSJ Events, providing support along the track. The CFA and SES, along with local artisans and producers filled the centre of town.

We all danced away the afternoon while kids jumped on the jumping castle, had their faces painted and snacked on JAZZ™ Apples.
