The publicity surrounding the Queensland floods may have subsided a little, but the offers of help from grey nomads keen to help in the cleanup and rebuilding effort have not.
In the small community of Theodore, for example, displaced residents have started to return to their homes during the past few weeks following record flooding earlier this year.
Sharyn Holmes from the Theodore Chamber of Commerce says a lot of grey nomads passing through the area have been keen to help those in need.
“They’ve been gardening or cleaning, a lot of the people still need their houses cleaned in some areas when it has become a little bit overwhelming,” she told the ABC. “So it has been wonderful that somebody can come along and ask them if they need any help and usually it’s not knocked back.”
