How are we going and how prepared are we for another flood event?
A number of support organisations are surveying residents currently living in the area that was flooded in 2022, to understand the state of housing, hear recovery stories, and identify ongoing support needs.
“Your story is important. If you live in the flood zone, you may hear a knock on your door in July. We encourage you to participate in the survey.” said Kathrin de Silva from Resilient Lismore. “This is also a chance for you to let us know if you require additional support.”
Resilient Lismore is working closely with several organisations including Red Cross, Uniting and Social Futures to gather valuable information, directly from people with lived experience. This will enable us to inform all levels of government how to be better prepared for recovery and disaster management. Information collected will be anonymous in the survey.
The door knock survey will occur from 15th to 27th July, weekdays 10am-12pm and 2-4pm, Saturdays 10-2pm.
