“We stand ready to help any of our customers or colleagues who have been caught in the path of cyclone Jasper,” Mr Francis said.

“Our grants are aimed at providing immediate support to help those who have suffered damage to homes and businesses or tragically lost livestock.

“We know it is vital for us to be there for our customers and colleagues right now, but we also know we have a role to play in the long-term recovery as well. NAB customers impacted by Tropical Cyclone Jasper are encouraged to contact us as soon as possible.”
