Liberal senator Hollie Hughes is appealing to people to donate sensory toys and items like weighted blankets to families of children with autism who have been affected by the bushfire emergency.
An online appeal has been launched to find special toys and support for children with disabilities, who have had to flee with their families as bushfires descended on their homes.
"Children with autism like to have that certainty, and they like to have things that they know," Senator Hughes said.
