Story 1: The Grapple for Groundwater
The extraction of groundwater that ends up in bottled water is big business for the companies that mine and sell the water. But for residents in the communities where the water is taken from, it’s often the cause of concern and controversy.
Hear from some of the rural communities who are taking on the industry, over the hidden water beneath our feet.
Story 2: The Cost for Care
It's commonly said that Australia has one of the best healthcare systems in the world, but is it leaving some Australians out? Healthcare access is notably different for some Australians, especially in Rural and Regional communities. They not only have less access to important health care but often have to travel far for basic health needs.

Hear Independent candidate for Goldstein, Zoe Daniel, her media advisor, Angela Pippos and social media manager, Olivia Smith discuss their community backed push for independence.
