The Essential Plumbing Project (‘the project’) was a strategic partnership between Resilient Lismore and Reece Foundation to restore essential plumbing services to flood-affected homes in Lismore.
The project supported Lismore residents who are displaced or vulnerable due to the 2022 flooding event. Through the partnership, essential plumbing was restored to a standard that was safe, secure and dignified so Lismore residents were in the best position to
fulfil their potential and achieve wellbeing.
Social impact measurement was undertaken by Huber Social to better understand the impact of the project; the impact of volunteering in the disaster recovery space; as well as gain a better understanding of the wellbeing needs of disaster-affected community members in Lismore.
