Tasmanian Bushfires 2013 Appeal


 
Red Cross is running the National Registration and Inquiry System, which helps reconnect family and friends affected by the disaster.

All people affected by the fires are urged to register their details online or call the State Inquiry Centre on 1800 727 077.

Red Cross volunteers and staff have been registering people at relief centres, including at Sorell, Hobart City Hall, Hobart Wharf, Nubeena and Dunalley.

Red Cross is also working closely with emergency service authorities to determine what other support Red Cross can provide at this time and will assist with any ongoing response and recovery efforts needed
