Please Help the Bigwood Family who have lost almost everything but the clothes on their back

  • Update from the Bigwood Family

      17 July 2018

    It has now been just 6 weeks since the sewerage collection point on their property exploded, turning the Bigwood familys world upside down.

    Everyone (apart from the family dog who has been housed elsewhere for the time being) are staying in temporary accommodation not far from their family home and will remain there until their house becomes liveable again - which is proving to be a time consuming process.

    During this time, they are constantly reminded of household items that they are having to replace. This makes every donation, no matter how big or small, a huge help, and something which they are forever thankful for.

    Moving forward, as soon as the sanitation levels are up to a normal and safe percentage, work can finally commence on rebuilding their home, which the family hope will be this side of Christmas, with the goal of moving back home early-mid 2019.

    Shane, Michelle, Amber, Blake and Isla have been very humbled by the generosity of each and every person who has shown them kindness during this time of extreme challenges, and would like to say a massive thank you to every single person who has donated towards helping them attempt to restore a sense of normality back into their lives, or helped in some small way.
