Every time you read the news, check FB or insta or skype your Mum, the bushfires are at the top of mind.

Just imagine what it must be like at home.

It's a true national crisis and one that, even though we're not there, we're sure as hell going to do everything we can to help. Anything less would be un-Australian.

So we're aiming to raise £10,000 for the Australian Red Cross to send home to help with the relief and rebuild efforts in the hardest hit communities. Please, empty your spare change jar and your wallets and give what you can.

In the Aussie spirit of doing the right thing and having a good time doing it, we're also hosting an event on the Australia Day weekend to celebrate our wonderful, and hurting, country and support the people who need us most right now. For more information and to purchase tickets visit our Facebook Event website .

ALL DONATIONS BEFORE AND ON THE DAY AND TICKET PROCEEDS go to the Australian Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund
