CYCLONE Debbie may have knocked us over but it didn’t knock us down.

As residents and business owners across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW get on with the recovery effort, you can now do your part.

Our special publicatio­n, Defying Debbie, features the heroes who helped overcome adversity from North Queensland to Northern NSW.

Produced by the Gold Coast Bulletin and News Regional Media, with the support of Suncorp, the gloss 132-page book features amazing stories of bravery and community spirit, and goes on sale today.

All the proceeds of the sale will be going to the official recovery effort, and will be donated to the charity Givit.org.au, which is delivering goods and services to those in need in both states.

“These stories needed not just recording for posterity but also celebratin­g,” Gold Coast Bulletin editor Scott Thompson said.

“People did, and continue to do, extraordin­ary things to help those rocked by Debbie. “We’re glad to do our bit.” Suncorp CEO Insurance, Anthony Day, said: “In times of disaster a vast legion of people work tirelessly and bravely to help their communitie­s. Suncorp would like to thank the emergency services, the Defence Forces, the volunteers and those everyday heroes who are there for those in need.”

Make sure you order your copy for $7.50, plus $4 postage, by calling 1300 361 604 (between 8am-5pm Monday to Friday) and paying by credit card.
