Our new video series, Inclusion - Our Stories is the place to view inclusion in action. Dan shares his story from regional Queensland where making music is just one of the ways he expresses his passion for life. Writing, producing, recording, gigs – he loves it all and is right at home in Gympie, Queensland’s centre of country music. His other loves include travelling across Australia and spending time with good friends, sharing good food and a lot of laughs. Bus Stop Film’s Breanna Swann joined us behind the camera for this story as a crew member – it was great to have Breanna behind the scenes!For more videos go to - cru.org.au/inclusion-our-stories/Inclusion – Our Stories is funded by the Department of Health, Disability and Aging @healthgovau #Gympie #InclusionMatters #DiversityAndInclusion #AccessibilityMatters #AccessibilityForAll #ThisIsQueensland #OutbackQueensland #QueenslandCountry #BusStopFilms ...
