A word from The Big Shout's ambassador, beloved Australian actor, Erik Thomson

Why your support is needed NOW

Right now, tens of thousands of rural and remote Australians are struggling with alcohol harm and addiction in isolation with little to no access to the support they need ... leading to depression, social isolation, farm accidents, suicide, preventable early deaths and other devastating outcomes.

We're aiming to raise $1 million in the month of February to extend our charity's impact, linking our mates who want to cut back or cut out booze to the support they need, sharing stories of hope, and helping make sure everyone is included, no matter the kind of drink in their hand.

We can't do this life-saving work without you. Every donation, big or small will have a huge impact.

**Join The Big Shout, and together we can "shout" our mates a chance for a better life**.

Why this campaign matters:

Hidden struggles

Many of our rural friends are fighting often invisible battles with alcohol harm or addiction behind closed doors. They're suffering every day ... and chances are, you wouldn't even know it until it's too late.

Pressure to drink

Out here in the country, our national identity and "bush pride" are often directly linked to grog. Our national survey found 96% of remote Australians who chose to say "no thanks" or "not today" to a drink faced severe pressure, bullying and the familiar line that "just one won't hurt you!". And while the intention of this is often camaraderie, its impact can be devestating.

Devastating impacts

Alcohol harm and addiction are directly linked to all the "big ticket" issues that most severely impact bush communities, including farm accidents, depression, bullying, domestic violence, suicide, preventable early deaths and more. And it's not just the person fighting addiction who is impacted: it's their loved ones too.

Scarce support

People living in rural or remote Australia are 150% more likely to experience harm from alcohol, yet only 17% get the help they need. Access to appropriate support is scarce for remote Australians often literally impossible to access due to geographic isolation, too city-centric, and/or impossible to afford.

And these are just a few of the reasons why your shout is urgently needed.

Your donation in action

Our charity is making it #OK2SAYNO to booze, breaking stigmas, linking rural Australians with vital life-saving support and creating a far healthier bush culture: one that is based on inclusion, mateship and respect.

And we can’t offer all this urgently needed, life-saving support without you.

**Through The Big Shout, we're intentionally playing on the Australian tradition of shouting a mate a beer, inviting you to shout the $$$ equivalent instead. It’s a fun idea with serious impact: your generosity will fund mateship, inclusion, and life-saving help where it’s needed most.**

With your support, we can:

Extend the reach of The Bush Tribe

The Bush Tribe is a safe, caring and carefully moderated online peer‑support network that's saved and changed the lives of thousands of rural Australians seeking to cut back or quit booze. In order to provide this non-judgemental, welcoming and supportive space – a place where rural people simply get around each other and share their own experiences, and resources that have helped them as well as cheer each other on – we need to provide trained moderators. With your shout, we can train more peer moderators and volunteers, allowing us to expand this online community so nobody is left alone or behind when they choose less or no booze.

Put practical tools in more hands

In the bush, booze is hardwired into our DNA: from socialising to celebrating, commiserations, business events, knock-off beers to simply drinking to "fit in. At Sober in the Country, we write and curate practical resources – like our Sober Toolbox – and connect vulnerable people to vital, vetted, trusted mental health providers and support organisations. Your donation helps us to continue creating and sharing these tools and supports, enabling mates and their loved ones to find their way towards recovery and vital, life-saving mental health support.

Share more stories of hope

Our video storytelling changes lives by sharing authentic stories of a powerful cross-section of real bush people choosing a life with less or no booze. When it comes to overcoming addiction and cutting back, half the battle is won when people "see" themselves in others’ stories. So it's no exaggeration to say that our stories act as a lifeline. With your support, we can film and share more stories, and throw more lifelines to those who need to know they’re not alone and that change is absolutely possible.

Build life‑saving partnerships

In remote regions, alcohol harm is far above the national average, yet support is well below the national average. We partner with like-minded organisations to advocate for and spread the word about the critical need for equitable support for remote Australians, from home‑based Telehealth detoxes to counselling and structured recovery programs. Your shout fuels these partnerships, bringing more urgent, life‑saving help to the bush.

Train more ambassadors

Our founder Shanna Whan has spoken nationally for more than a decade to change the narrative around booze in the bush – pioneering change by showing how easily we can have conversations about booze and alcohol harm in the bush. Now, we’re equipping more ambassadors to deliver workshops and talks in communities and workplaces across remote Australia. With your support, we can train more ambassadors to amplify our message and what we know is working to help our remote Australians.

Launch a men’s group

Men in the bush are our gravest concern: they're much harder to reach, less likely to seek help, and they've been taught the only way to "open up" or be vulnerable is through the lens of a brown bottle. We’re setting up a dedicated online rural men’s group to support those struggling with booze, so they can break their silence in a safe space among other men who are rural ... and who get it. Your shout helps us build this vital connection for the vulnerable blokes who need it most.

Expand the reach of #OK2SAYNO

Our grassroots #OK2SAYNO (to booze) movement has already changed countless lives across the outback, from ensuring bush communities stock thoughtful alcohol-free drink options (more than just booze and sugary drinks) to equipping leaders and trainees on why it needs to be okay (always) for any of our mates to say "no" or "not today" to booze. With your support, we can expand our #OK2SAYNO movement, workshops and training nationally with an advertising campaign designed to reach more communities, workplaces, and families in remote areas of Australia where alcohol harm is high and support is scarce. Your shout will help us amplify this life-saving message nationwide.

And we can’t offer all this urgently needed, life-saving support without you.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. All donations to Sober in the Country are tax deductible - including any "shout" you make as part of this fundraising campaign.

We are a nationally recognised charity, endorsed with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR1) status.

DGR1 status is a stamp of approval from the Australian Taxation Office that verifies that your donations will go directly into programs and services that serve the public good, supporting rural Australians impacted by alcohol harm.

We are committed to ensuring your donation stays in the bush and will the greatest impact for rural Australians affected by alcohol harm.

All our team live and work in rural Australia. And all your donations will amplify our reach and impact, whether that's by directly funding our programs and services (like our #OK2SAYNO movement and #OK2SAYNO workshops), helping us create resources like our Sober Toolbox, helping us train more Bush Tribe moderators, helping us film and share more stories of hope, helping us train more speakers and ambassadors, and growing our team to expand our capacity and reach even more rural Australians each year. No matter where we apply it, every dollar you donate will help change and save the lives of rural Australians living with alcohol harm.

Our purpose also includes increasing awareness of alcohol harm in the bush, advocacy, and peer-to-peer support (via our online Bush Tribe). However, our absolute priority and aim is to ensure those in need get to support as soon as possible. That's why we partner with and advocate for programs run by larger organisations who have government funding, staff, and the capacity needed for service provision, counselling, and more – like bringing free bush Telehealth detoxes to isolated Australians.

All of this is listed on our website under our Support and Resources pages. And you can find out more about your donation in action on our Donate page and under Your Donation in Action on this page.

Simply visit our Donate page.

There are also other ways you can show your support – and you'll find them on our Get Involved page and our #OK2SAYNO page as well

Thank you! We only exist because of donations like yours.

Please note: We are a charity with Deductible Gift Recipient 1 (DGR1) status, which means any donations you make to Sober in Country are tax deductible and you can be assured the funds will go directly to funding programs for the public good.

If you're new here, it's super important you understand we are a charity that offers advocacy, education and peer support only. We are not a program or a service provider. We aren't a replacement for clinical, medical, or professional support, and we are not a counselling services.

But we work hard to align with and recommend organisations who share our values. So if you head to our “Need Support” button top right of every page, you’ll find the contact details for urgent and non-urgent support from organisations that offer services including free phone or text counselling, supported clinical bush telehealth detoxes, counselling, sober coaching and more. And in our various Support and Resources pages you can find in our menu, you can find out more about joining our Bush Tribe, access a range of resources, and recommended external organisations that can provide you with the support you are seeking.

Sober in the Country's current focus is our broad-scale advocacy and education as well as continuing to keep peer-support in place via our Bush Tribe for those fighting addiction in isolation. In time, and with funding, we aim to create a Family and Friends peer online network.

The great news is that there are already excellent resources and online anonymous support options available for friends and family worried about a loved one affected by alcohol harm. Click on our Need Support button at the top of the page or head to our Support for Family and Friends page where you'll find links to support organisations and resources that can help you.

We have a great range of merchandise, from trucker caps to tanks, tees and winter sleeves.

Just visit our online store here.

PLEASE send us your merch photos to share or tag us in your posts wearing our merch! We love nothing more!

NOTE: what we have in stock is what is on the website. If you're chasing something you've seen online and it's not there, it's sold out, sorry.

At Sober in the Country, we’re changing the narrative around booze in the bush. We have a simple message and a bold vision: a future where every single one of our rural and remote mates – from farmers to FIFO workers – always know it’s #OK2SAYNO to booze.

As a national charity, we’re creating radical social change that’s saving the lives of remote and rural Australians affected by alcohol harm via our advocacy, straight talk, sharing our lived-experience, and partnerships with leading Alcohol and Drug (AOD) organisations. We don’t believe in waiting until rock bottom or crisis hits to help a mate.
Our founder and CEO Shanna Whan (2022 Australian of the Year recipient) also travels and advocates as a keynote speaker, panelist, and TV guest at a national level.
Additionally, we offer an online peer-to-peer support group called The Bush Tribe that is strictly for rural and remote Australians choosing to cut back or quit alcohol. The Bush Tribe is very closely moderated and carefully monitored, and users have optional anonymity. The Bush Tribe is NOT a program nor representing a program: we encourage our members to simply share safely and support each other while investigating a range of options and what works best for them.
Finally, we share and tell stories that amplify the impact of our work. Head here to watch our Amplification Project videos, where some of our rural mates share their powerful, relatable stories of hope after choosing a life with less or no booze.

We are effectively casting a virtual net across rural Australia to ensure we ''do what we can with what we have'' to catch our mates, upstream, before they fall into the river of alcohol harm, misuse, and addiction.

Sometimes - those we catch need a great deal more than peer-support and a safe place to talk. And, so, while Sober in the Country is not a funded service provider, we are now aligned with and working alongside leading national Australian organisations who specialise in alcohol (and drug) harm. These organisations have the staff, capacity, funding and resources to help our most vulnerable, including: free phone counselling, home-based tele-health detoxing, and more. You can find resources and links to further clinical help and support here.

If you're new here it's imperative you understand we are a charity that is not a program or service provider. We work as advocates and offer an online peer support group – our Bush Tribe (for rural people). We aren't a replacement for clinical, medical, or professional support, and we do not provide one-on-one counselling or services.

However, if you click on our "Need Support" button top right of every page, you'll find the contact details for urgent and non-urgent support from organisations that offer services including free phone or text counselling, supported clinical bush telehealth detoxes, counselling, sober coaching and more. And in our various Support and Resources pages you can find in our menu, you can find out more about joining our Bush Tribe, access a range of resources, and recommended external organisations that can provide you with the support you are seeking.

While Shan dearly wishes she could support every single person who reaches out - it simply isn't physically possible. She is increasingly time-poor and carrying an enormous load and has to be incredibly careful to have boundaries in place to protect her mental health.

Shanna speaks publicly through Sober in the Country's advocacy work and is very active (daily) as a lived-experience expert in our Bush Tribe.

She has, over the years, shared the intimate details of her story countless times on a huge range of national and international media platforms - so you can catch that on Our Media Over the Years page at your leisure.

No.

In short: Sober in the Country is not a funded service provider, nor do we work in a one-on-one capacity or as a drug or alcohol counselling service.

We are a small charitable organisation, and our purpose lies in awareness, advocacy, and peer-to-peer support (via our online Bush Tribe) only.

However our absolute aim is to ensure those in need get to support as soon as possible. That's why we are linked in and partnered with other large organisations who do have the government funding, staff, and capacity for service provision, counselling, and more.

All of this is listed on our website under our Support and Resources pages for you that you can find in our menu.

We strongly recommend you look through all the information. Help is available.

Simply visit our Donate page.

There are also other ways you can show your support – and you'll find them on our Get Involved page and our #OK2SAYNO page as well

Thank you! We only exist because of donations like yours.

Please note: We are a charity with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status, which means any donations you make to Sober in Country are tax deductible.

Just visit our Bush Tribe page, or go straight to the form, fill it out and submit it. We will take a day or two to get back to you (as we manually process and check all applications).

The reason we ask new members to fill out a form is for privacy and protection: two things we are fiercely strict on.

Please remember: this is a peer-support group for for rural and remote people only.

If you're from the city or a large regional area, you can find a number of organisations we work alongside and recommend that offer online peer support groups that can help you via our Need Support tab and our Support to Cut Back or Quit Alcohol page.

No. The Bush Tribe is simply a peer-to-peer support group with the option for anonymity for those who need it.

The Bush Tribe is not affiliated with any organisation or program. As our philosophy is strictly based in our belief that ''there is no one size for all'' ... we don't tell, or judge, or instruct: we simply stand by our friend choosing to drink less or not at all. Members share their stories and listen to others' stories, provide encouragement and share resources they've found useful.

Our hundreds of Bush Tribe members are people from all walks of life, all ages (minimum 18 years of age and up), and all beliefs. And while our members all do their own 'thing' in terms of programs or structured support alongside the peer-support they give and receive via the Bush Tribe, it is a requirement of joining that our members each commit to finding the right structured support for them as well (e.g. via SMART Recovery, AA, This Naked Mind, etc.).

We have been asked this frequently, and while we wish we could say "yes" immediately .... it's not as simple as it sounds.

In time, Sober in the Country will be seeking more official brand ambassadors, volunteers and speakers, but our first priority is to ensure we have the right funding, governance, and legalities in place for our current advocacy work and initiatives. But in the future, as we grow, we will be seeking to expand the number of Sober in the Country volunteers and speakers.

So please watch this space!

But there are heaps of ways you can support us in the meantime, and they're outlined for you on our Get Involved page.

Sober in the Country's main purpose is to support the person fighting the addiction, but we do plan on creating a rural peer support space online for family members soon.

The great news is that there are already excellent resources and online anonymous support options available for friends and family worried about a loved one affected by alcohol harm. Click on our Need Support button at the top of the page or head to our Support for Family and Friends page where you'll find links to support organisations and resources that can help you.

In short, no.

'Sober in the City' is already well and truly happening all across Australia, by many other names, pages, organisations, and charities.

We have never been interested in re-inventing a wheel: we exist to recalibrate the wheel for bush conditions.

So we'll let the legends doing important work in the city keep doing that, and we will stay focused on what we do best: supporting remote and rural Australians affected by alcohol harm.

We have a great range of merchandise from stubby coolers and stickers to trucker caps to bucket hats, tanks, tees and winter sleeves.

Just visit our online store here.

PLEASE send us your merch photos to share!

NOTE: what we have in stock is what is on the website. If you're chasing something you've seen online and it's no there, it's sold out, sorry.

We receive a lot of emails asking Shanna's advice on starting a charity along with a lot of ''how to'' questions ...

While Shan deeply wishes she could support everyone starting out, she does not have the capacity for additional pro-bono advisory support.

However, if you listen in to her years and years worth of very frank media and podcasting, Shanna does discuss starting a charity across these various mediums, so that will be helpful.

What she'd love you to know is that founding and creating Sober in the Country was nothing simple or linear, and has taken the better part of a decade to figure out how to get sober and then start a charity and build it into something with a broader team that is growing and making radical social change and increasingly saving the lives of rural Australians affected by alcohol harm.

One day, Shanna plans to write a book about these experiences (she began her memoir this year and hopes to release it in 2025). But, in her words, getting Sober in the Country off the ground ''just came down to nothing more complicated than trying, failing, and being relentless.''

The ACNC (Australian Charities and not-for-profits Commission) website has a wealth of information on charities and not-for-profit organisations and is your best starting point for research.

We love hearing your thoughts and ideas.

In the spirit of honesty, we're a very busy organisation, which means we're often severely limited with time and capacity.

So, what we'd ask is that if you're interested in discussing a partnership, proposal, idea (etc.) that as a basic start point you please put a brief pitch or document together with very clear outlines as to who you are, what you're thinking, what your objectives are, and why you'd like to work with us. Please also include your website or social handles and all the basic links and info.

You are welcome to email your detailed pitch and proposal to us via admin@soberinthecountry.org and we'll have a look when we can and if there is alignment and a path forward, we will get in touch with you.

** Please note: as a rule, we don't cross-promote or do plugs on our social media, rather, we just organically share and acknowledge others doing what we believe is valuable.

Alcohol free beer, wine, and spirits are among the fastest-growing markets in the beverage industry globally.

Just Google the search words ''zero alcohol'' or ''AF'' drinks and prepare to be blown away. New accounts, options, manufacturers, marketers and influencers in this space are almost impossible to keep up with. They literally crop up by the dozen overnight.

While ''AF'' drinks can certainly be a good fit and option for some folks in some scenarios, please be aware that they're actually a massive potential trigger and danger-zone for others because of how accurately they replicate the look, taste, smell, and even the 5 o'clock 'ritual' of alcohol.

Also - please be aware that 'zero alcohol' drinks can have a small percentage of alcohol still present and still be legally marketed as ''0%.''Neither us or anyone else can tell you what to do or what not to do, but we can absolutely confirm these drinks are linked to relapses for some people.

SO: we strongly suggest you proceed down this path with immense caution, do your own research and investigation and make an informed decision. We'd also suggest that, if in doubt, yoavoid them completely and seek an alternative such as sparkling water with lemon or lime.

We often get asked if our founder, Shan, has a few minutes to discuss business ideas with like-minded people in the AOD space.

While she wishes she could say "yes" to everyone and talk shop all day, it's not that simple in an already packed schedule and hectic workload.

So what we'd kindly ask is that you please put together a brief document outlining exactly what you'd like to discuss and why, and to give us a sense of the key points about your discussion and what you'd like to achieve (etc., etc.) so that we at least understand your starting point so we can determine whether we are aligned and what / where / how our discussion might unfold.

We'd really appreciate your help with that, first.

Then, once you've done that homework and prepared your document, just drop us a message via the contact us link in our footer and we'll be in touch if and when we're able.

Thanks a squillion.

A little note from our founder, Shan

Since day one, on February 22, 2025, when I chose life over death and walked away from my own alcohol addiction, terrified and alone ... I have never wavered in my own personal stance. And this stance is now our charity's stance: we are not interested in ‘preaching’ prohibition. This doesn’t work and it never will. This appeal echoes these same core values, which are never about judging a mate who can enjoy a few drinks safely, but rather about respecting the choices of those who choose less or no alcohol, without qualification or reason.

You may have heard of our #OK2SAYNO (to booze) movement – and that’s what our charity's stance is all about. You "do you", but please always also back your mates who want to cut back or cut out booze to do the same. And please simply make the effort to ensure everyone’s included and properly catered for at every single bush event.

Just like our #OK2SAYNO movement, with The Big Shout appeal, we're asking that you support rural or remote Australians who are opting to cut back on or ditch the booze altogether. We’re asking that you show that support in the same way we do without hesitation when someone is battling any other illness, like depression, cancer, or a broken leg.

I'm so glad you found your way to this page. And I, the Sober in the Country team, and all the remote Australians we help would deeply appreciate your support. With your virtual shout, you can help us to continue saving and changing rural lives.

THE BIG SHOUT APPEAL

THE BIG SHOUT APPEAL

The Big Shout national appeal is built on the great Australian tradition of not hesitating to shout a mate a beer.

But we're asking those who'd typically love to shout a beer to instead shout a virtual round – the $$$ equivalent of a beer or a carton – so that your mateship and generosity can fund real help instead ... because some of our mates need a hand, not another beer in their hand.

Throughout the entire month of February, whether you're a drinker, a non-drinker or somewhere in between, shouting your support can literally change and save the lives of remote Australians fighting hidden battles with addiction and choosing to cut back grog.

We'd love you to join the ranks of legends who've been chipping in to support country mates.
