Past Services
The Two Rooms Project
Safe, secure and warm housing for Lismore In the months following the disaster, during the coldest winter in years, Resilient Lismore focused on restoring ‘safe, secure and warm’ living spaces. With thousands of people displaced, and a severe shortage of emergency housing, homeowners were living in houses without lockable doors, and without walls, windows, electricity or hot water.
Essential Plumbing Project
Restoring critical plumbing for Lismore residents In February 2023, Resilient Lismore partnered with Reece Foundation to restore essential plumbing to 72 homes. Volunteer tradespeople were recruited from Reece Foundation’s networks across Australia, who then came to Lismore to install donated stock from Reece Plumbing.
