On today’s program:
• We hear about a new report by leading Australian Charities which challenged government to focus on social issues and not just the economy. One of the co-authors of that report will be sharing their thoughts a little later.
• According to Asthma Australia, 1 in 9 Australians have asthma, but for First Nation’s peoples those rates are almost double. The 7th of May marked world asthma day, the Education Manager at the Asthma Foundation NT discusses the day.
• We are also going to hear from the CEO of the NIB foundation. The foundation aims to help people and communities to lead healthier lives by improving health and well-being.
