⛈ How's everyone doing with the wild weather?! ⛈

Even though it might not seem as wild as yesterday, there is a risk of trees coming down due to the high wind and wet ground.

So, stay safe everyone and if you need assistance:

🚨 In a life-threatening emergency, call Triple Zero (000).

🚧 For emergency assistance during a flood, storm or tsunami, call NSW SES on 132 500.

Are you an emerging content maker with disability? Do you have a burning story that you have always wanted to research and explore?

The ABC is partnering with International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD) to recognise the 5.5 million Australians with disability.

A series of factual stories and content will be commissioned by the ABC to be published and broadcast across ABC platforms for IDPwD on December 3.

If you are an emerging content maker or journalist with disability and have a story to tell, now is your chance to work with the ABC to tell it.
