After days of torrential rain and what meteorologists termed a rain bomb, many parts of Brisbane went under as the Brisbane River and many suburban creeks flooded. It's the most severe flooding in Brisbane since 2011, but this time around what caught many locals out was just how fast the water rose. Lou lives in the suburb of Oxley which is in Brisbane's south west - it was devastated by the floods in 2011, and while I couldn't get in to speak to her in person because of the flooding, I managed to get her on the phone to chat about what Oxley was going through. There were plenty of good news stories as well, like the cows rescued from a shed roof by a group of kayakers. Bonus fact - Oxley is one of Dave McCormack aka Bandit Heeler's favourite Brissy suburbs - we know because he dropped that factoid when we got the chance to interview him last year.

Vi träffar Peter Sahlberg i hans lägenhet på Mosebacke torg på Södermalm i Stockholm. För sexton år sedan startade han Surfakademin tillsammans med sin bästa kompis Jens Holmer. De träffades på Hawaii i mitten av 90-talet dit de båda tagit sig för att plugga och lära sig surfa.- I början rusade vi in i alla fällor man kan göra med för små brädor och för stora vågor. Men till sist förbarmade en Hawaiiansk familj över oss, då blev livet på ön enklare.Dessa tidigare erfarenheter ledde fram till Surfakademin. Affärsidén var och är att tillgängliggöra surfing för en bredare publik. Sedan starten har man arrangerat resor över hela världen och haft 13 000 kunder. - Vi är Sveriges härligaste surf- och reseföretag. Reseföretag låter galet tråkigt, men vi arrangerar surf- och yoga-upplevelser över hela världen. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

From a simple gesture of kindness, Juliette Wright began her charity GIVIT in 2009 and since then has donated over 2 million items to those in need. GIVIT's unique concept quickly captured the attention of the Government.  When Queensland flooded in 2011, Premier Anna Bligh turned to Juliette for help.  Givit became the state government's official website for managing donations during disasters.  They are now recognised as the National Disaster and Emergency Partner.During the devastating bushfires earlier in the year, the Duchess of Cornwall reached out to the GIVIT team to make a donation.  Camilla is now Patron of the Charity, something Juliette is justly proud of!

In this episode of the Social Lights Podcast, podcast host and Social Mediology founder Kate vanderVoort chats with Juliette Wright, Founder and Director of GIVIT.org.au (GIVIT.org.au) —an online donation and giving platform. ABOUT JULIETTE and GIVIT A former nutritionist who specialised in autoimmune diseases, cancer, and infertility—Juliette Wright has always wanted to help people. However, she realised one day that she wanted to help out in a different manner. What started out as a person’s simple quest to donate baby clothes to a charity that really needed it has snowballed into Juliette starting a national charity. Through GIVIT, charities can request for specific items that they truly need—such as a microwave or mattress—and individuals can donate items they no longer need and give it to someone who does. Juliette and her team ensure that it’s always perfectly matched, down to the item’s size, quantity, and quality. BIG IDEA 1 “It’s incredibly addictive to watch giving flow and helping it happen.” (8:47) Juliette quickly realized that charities in her area needed very specific, sometimes even unusual, things. One charity asked for work boots, so that the father of a homeless family could get a job. “The simple school shoes that your kids no longer require, the lovely pencil case that they got given as a present that they never use—we do guarantee through GIVIT that they will go directly to someone who actually needs it,” Juliette shares. They even allow the recipient to choose which donation to accept, giving them a sense of ownership. Juliette shares that these recipients tend to hold on to their items longer when they’re have a choice as to what they’re given. As such, her team sort through the donations, and have the right to refuse donations when they feel that it’s no longer in useable condition, or is essentially deemed not fit for gifting. Apart from helping out those in need, GIVIT also sees to it that they help out the local economy when possible. When the quantity needed is large, for instance, then the charity asks its donors for money instead of physical items. The charity then uses then use this money to purchase the items from the local retailers.  BIG IDEA 2 “We are never not activated now.” (20:34) Regardless of the time of year, GIVIT is working on either small or large activations. While they’re not always activated on the level of fires where all hands are on deck, they have other appeals that keep them busy. From January to April, for instance, they work on their Back to School campaign for kids that don't have essentials such as shoes, a pencil case, or a hat. After the holidays, they also get numerous requests stemming from domestic violence cases and families getting displaced who are in need of support. BIG IDEA 3 “Don’t ever just give up, even if it just takes a little longer.” (43:37)  Juliette built her website numerous times—and failed—before getting it to work the way she wanted it to. She had lost about 800-900 AUD. She felt like an absolute failure, and shares that even if nobody else knew that she had failed—she did. But she dug really deep and told herself, “I’m going to do this anyway.” No matter what other people thought, she knew that it was important to her, and that’s what mattered. It's been 11 years since GIVIT was first launched, and to date, over 1.5 million items have been donated to people in need. Juliette has been recognized has as 2015’s Australian Local Hero, and GIVIT has been promoted by celebrities such as the Duchess of Cornwall and even Barack Obama. The charity has recently been given funding from the federal government’s Department of Emergencies to enable the website to manage multiple catastrophic disasters at the same time. Juliette continues to work tirelessly to ensure that GIVIT becomes a “giving portal that can be resilient enough to manage the quantity of people who want

Since September, Australia has experienced the worst bushfires in our history. The conditions have been described as “apocalyptic” and likened to “an atomic bomb” as fires continue to burn in every state and territory in the country. On New Year’s Eve tens of thousands of Australians found themselves trapped by fire with no power or mobile phone service. We speak to Mamamia’s Editor, Clare Stephens, who was one of them.  The loss of homes, business, wildlife and, at last count, 23 lives, is being mourned all over the world. In this special episode of Mamamia Out Loud, Holly Wainwright, Mia Freedman and Jessie Stephens discuss what’s happened, why such fury is being directed at our Prime Minister and perhaps most importantly, what can be done to help.  For a full list of where to donate, see the list below:  New South Wales Support your local brigade https://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/volunteer/support-your-local-brigade Support firefighter’s families http://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/news-and-media/general-news/featured/support-for-firefighter-families Giveit NSW - you can donate money or find specific items that have been requested for donation https://givit.worldsecuresystems.com/items-needed?campaign=50 Mogo Zoo Fire Recovery https://au.gofundme.com/f/mogo-zoo-fire-recovery  Port Macquarie Koala Hospital https://au.gofundme.com/f/help-thirsty-koalas-devastated-by-recent-fires Victoria Bushfire Appeal for the ongoing support of bushfire survivors https://www.vic.gov.au/bushfireappeal Gippsland Emergency Relief Fund https://www.gerf.org.au/donate/  GoFundMe pages have been set up for the Victorian communities of Cudgewa https://bit.ly/2Qr1F3b and Mallacootahttps://www.gofundme.com/f/mallacoota-fires-support-fund Wildlife Victoria https://www.facebook.com/donate/466018984334454/2938373519529456/ South Australia  CFS foundation https://cfsfoundation.org.au/donate Gofundme for Kangaroo Island wildlife recovery and rehabilitation efforts https://bit.ly/37KGQFx  Kangaroo Island Mayoral Relief and Recovery Bushfire Fund  https://bit.ly/2T3dhLy  Adelaide Koala Rescue LTD http://www.akr.org.au/donate  Queensland RFBAQ Donations https://rfbaq.org/donate-to-a-specific-brigade Queensland-government-backed Givit is coordinating donations of items across Australia. https://givit.worldsecuresystems.com/items-needed?campaign=4 General Help Donate blood with the Australian Red Cross https://www.donateblood.com.au/  Australian Lions Foundation https://www.givenow.com.au/australianlionsfoundation  RSPCA https://www.rspcansw.org.au/  Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery https://www.redcross.org.au/campaigns/disaster-relief-and-recovery-donate  WIRES for animal support and care https://www.wires.org.au/donate/emergency-fund

Författare, 79 år. Född och bosatt i Stockholm. Tidigare Sommarvärd 1979, 1982, 1984. I sitt fjärde Sommar i P1 talar författaren Agneta Pleijel om skrivande, läsande och musikens betydelse och om hur minnen ur livet vecklar ut sig när man skriver ner dem. Agneta Pleijel deklarerar tidigt i sitt sommarprogram om att hon tänker prata om fiktion, om skrivande, läsande och konst i många former. Pleijel, som själv säger att hon är förvånad över att hon hunnit bli 79 år gammal, konstaterar att man genom att skriva ner sina minnen, plötsligt upptäcker mer och mer av sitt eget jag. Hon uppmanar alla att skriva, för att fånga livet och genom texten få lära känna sig själv bättre, hon låter musiken i programmet vävas in i berättelsen och funderar också en hel del kring musikens betydelse i skapandet och livet. Agneta Pleijel pratar både om skrivandet som yrke och om litteratur och läsandet som konst. Hon pratar om det magiska som inträffar när man sätter sig ner och börjar skriva och om hur texterna växer fram som ett sätt att ta reda på något hon inte vet. Hon refererar till andras filosoferande om litteratur och citerar den schweiziske författaren Peter Bischels som bland annat sagt att litteraturen måste ha lov att syssla med obetydligheter. Pleijel berättar också om de självbiografiska inslag som finns i hennes romaner, om svårigheterna med att skriva om sig själv och om ifrågasättandet av de egna minnena. I den senaste romanen Doften av en man berättar hon bland annat om studentlivet i 60-talets Göteborg och ojämlikheten hon upplevde, framförallt i frågor om sexualitet. Hon konstaterar att hon hade svårt att acceptera kvinnans underordning och att de insikter hon fick gjorde henne till en både ilsken och envis person, och så slår hon ett slag för den fortsatta kampen om jämställdhet mellan könen. Sedan vindlar programmet vidare i resonemang kring sanning och fiktion, om verkliga minnen och om sådana som uppstår först när de skrivs ner, hon snuddar vid en del samtidsfrågor men landar till sist i ett resonemang om tid och åldrande och om vikten att ta sig tid att lyssna och tänka. Om Agneta Pleijel En av våra mest framstående författare. Den senast utkomna självbiografiska boken Doften av en man uppmärksammades stort liksom den första memoardelen Spådomen. Har fått Svenska Akademiens nordiska pris bland många andra utmärkelser. Det stora genombrottet kom med romanen Vindspejare. Givit ut tre diktsamlingar och nio romaner som är översatta till en rad språk. Varit kulturchef på Aftonbladet, ordförande för Svenska PEN och professor vid Dramatiska Institutet. Är en aktiv samhällsdebattör. Älskar cirkusar och djurparker. Producent: Anneli Dufva

Artist, Youtubeprofil, 33 år. Född i Vadstena, bosatt i Norrköping. Debuterar som Sommarvärd. "Jag hade nått botten i psykisk ohälsa. För att klara av vardagen så skapade jag karaktären Jockioboi", säger youtubeprofilen Joakim Lundell i sitt Sommar. Jockiboi drack alkohol varje dag, körde dagens runk och var inte rädd för någonting, men i programmet framgår att ju fler följare som såg honom tänja på gränserna, desto mer tappade Joakim Lundell bort sig själv. Joakim Lundell har utsetts till Sveriges mäktigaste i sociala medier. Tillsammans med frun Jonna har han 165 miljoner visningar per år på Youtube, har vunnit Guldtuben tre gånger och är just nu aktuell med den nya tv-serien Familjen Lundell. I Sommarprogrammet pratar Joakim Lundell om lyckan i att ha blivit pappa till Lunabelle och hur det har fått honom att inse att livet inte bara handlar om att vara störst på sociala medier. Han berättar om den trasiga uppväxten, missbruket och hur det är att leva i offentligheten med  neuropsykiatriska diagnoser som ADD och Aspergers syndrom. "Det är svårt att känna sig annorlunda. Jag känner att jag aldrig passar in i några sammanhang. Därför trivs jag bäst ensam, ihop med min fru Jonna och mina nära vänner som kan förstå mig. Jag går inte på några offentliga tillställningar eller event. Jag mår inte bra i sådana sammanhang." Mer om Joakim Lundell Utsedd till Sveriges mäktigaste makthavare i sociala medier tillsammans med frun Jonna. Aktuell med tv-programmet Familjen Lundell på strömningstjänsten Dplay. Har 1,4 miljoner följare och 165 miljoner visningar per år på Youtube. Givit ut två självbiografiska böcker. Monster om missbruk och en trasig uppväxt i fosterfamiljer och behandlingshem.

Har producerat realityserier, till exempel Jocke och Jonna i nöd och lust. Blev känd genom bloggen som den gränslösa karaktären Jockiboi och genom medverkan i tv-såpan Kungarna av Tylösand.

In this episode, Catherine chats to Juliette Wright, a long-term Mind Matters client and the founder and director of GIVIT, a not-for-profit with the aim of helping alleviate the effects of poverty across Australia. She shares her secrets to success and the challenges she’s had to overcome in order to get there. An experienced director and CEO, Juliette started the free online donation platform in 2009 with the hope of connecting those who have with those who need. The website has grown from just 15 charities onboard to more than 2,600 charities, government agencies and schools in just under 10 years. The website has seen more than 1.2 million items donated to people in need. GIVIT also provides an award-winning Disaster Recovery Service to help manage donation flow after disasters like the Brisbane and Bundaberg Floods, Tropical Cyclones Marcia, Ita and Debbie, and the Gladstone and Tasmanian fires. GIVIT is the only non-profit funded by the NSW Government’s Department of Primary Industry for drought recovery in New South Wales, because GIVIT buys locally in disaster and drought recovery, ensuring the right people, get the right things in the right way. Juliette has won numerous awards for disaster recovery, business and innovation, and was awarded Australia’s Local Hero in 2015. More recently, she was awarded the Order of Australia Medal.
