A Scotsburn family has lost their home to bushfire just days before Christmas.

The family of five escaped unharmed, but have been left with nothing but the clothes on their back.

An emotional Alison Mahar told Tony Jones she has been overwhelmed by the support her family has received from family, friends, and strangers alike.

‘We’re getting there. It’s been pretty tough,’ Ms Mahar said.
