Sober In The Country and The Bush Tribe
Sober In The Country is the grassroots national charity going upstream and changing the narrative around booze in the bush. Their mission is a future where all our bush mates know it's "OK2SAYNO".
SITC provides a peer-to-peer online community called The Bush Tribe, to connect rural and remote Australians with a shared wish to cut back or quit alcohol. This is not a substitute for professional support or clinical advice but a safe place to land, share and to simply begin to learn how to be sober in the country. This is a close-knit and lovingly curated group with a non-negotiable code of conduct and ethics in place, and there's the option of anonymous posting. And it is absolutely laser-focused on rural and remote people.
I have seen peer support groups, and this is my absolute favourite because of the governance and duty of care that is non-negotiable.
I am a proud supporter of SITC and the incredible work they do to advocate for all rural and remote Australians.
ETCH Sparkling Beverages
ETCH = Every Time Choose Health
ETCH, a sophisticated range of all natural sparkling beverages crafted using Australian native fruits and herbs does not replicate a traditional alcohol style. Andy and Jason want to challenge the idea that an adult drink has to taste and smell like alcohol to be enjoyable. Satisfying mouthfeel, flavour, and presence and utilising uniquely Australian plants, you can feel proud sharing and enjoying ETCH and being included, during all occasions.
The ETCH Sparkling range is sugar free, preservative free and all natural (no artificial sweeteners in sight!) The flavours are complex and interesting and will take you on a journey to experience the stunning native ingredients featured in each drink.
ETCH is the true taste of Australia and a drink you can really feel good about.
