Little for Naracoorte
By Nasik Swami There is very little in the federal budget for towns like Naracoorte in regional South Australia. And with the new budget, the government has put the heavy lifting at the feet of the community, with very limited spending in the region to counterbalance the increasing costs.

Lidums Dental in conjunction with Smile Right, is now offering payment plans that enable people to get their teeth fixed now and pay for it later.
