The Get Cyclone Ready Event hosted by the Whitsunday Regional Council last Saturday was a great success.
Located at the Airlie Markets, the pop-up event attracted lots of attention, with many passers-by stopping to read the information available and talk to local experts on how to prepare for the upcoming storm season.
Whitsunday Regional Council Disaster Management Coordinator Sandra Black expressed the importance of these events.
“The more resilient you are, the more you've put into your education and your awareness of risks in your community, the quicker you recover,” she said.
With Storm season starting on 1st November, it is important to be educated and ready for every possibility.
Sandra explained that preparing an EVAC kit is a great way to prepare.
More information on how to be cyclone ready is available via the Whitsunday Regional Council website or via the Queensland Government’s website.
