S4 Ep16: The Great Australian Charity Cattle Drive saddles up - with Bim Struss

ONE in six people in Australia experience food insecurity and hunger on a weekly basis. Now a unique outback initiative has been launched enabling members of the Australian cattle industry to help their city counterparts and raise much needed funds to support those in need. The inaugural 2025 Great Australian Charity Cattle Drive was officially unveiled by Beef Bank director Bim Struss during the sold-out Rural Press Club of Queensland breakfast during Beef Week in Rockhampton. The drive will see 2000 head of cattle walked by professional drovers and paying supporters on horseback along designated stock routes from Longreach to Roma in May next year. In this week’s Weekly Grill, Bim chats with host Kerry Lonergan about the exciting project, designed to bring city and country together.
