A recent donation from Ritchies Supa IGA Supermarkets to Cobram and Yarrawonga CFA and SES is yet another example of how rural communities are pulling together after the floods.
When the rain came down on Wednesday 29 February, it marked the start of the wettest week on record for over 20 locations in north-east Victoria, some by as much as twice the previous record, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
A range of emergency support services are available to assist families, businesses and farmers affected by the current flooding across Central and Northern Victoria.
Following the floods and impending floods for areas of north-east of Victoria, CFA Chief Officer Euan Ferguson and Chief Executive Officer Mick Bourke visited affected towns last week (Tuesday 6, March).
