He's done it! 💙

12-year-old Dusty Langby set out to raise a million dollars for Little Wings, walking 540km from Warren to Canberra. 🌟

Today he met with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to ask him to match his fundraising effort to hit that million-dollar mark, and the Prime Minister agreed.

Dusty had already raised more than $530,000, meaning more than a million dollars will be going to keep Little Wings in the air.

Congratulations team Dusty. 🚶

After a particularly wet season, wildflowers and other plant life along the Darling-Baaka River have flourished in numbers not seen for decades, according to local Barkindji and Malyangapa tour guide Dave Doyle.
