On Thursday 26th March we will be re-visiting some of the events following the formation of Bellingen Rural Australians for Refugees (BRAR), where Bellingen joined with other rural communities across the nation in a unique grassroots action that resulted in the eventual change of policies. Irene Wallin and Anne Simpson will be presenting the seminar Global to Rural – our last with Marty at  Bellabookafe.
