What is it about?Being prepared and having a plan for disasters and emergencies is important for each of us individually, and as a community. We know this is especially important for people with disability and people with additional needs to minimise risks and save lives. To do this we all have a role and a part to play - people with disability, community members, Government, Council, disability and community organisations and emergency services. Come along to this two day community event to work together to build a more inclusive disaster resilient Southern Downs. This is the first in a series of three forums over two years. Together we will develop the inclusive strategies, actions and plans that will help us to act before, during and after a disaster to include people with disability and others in our community.AccessibilityThis is a supported, inclusive, and interactive event. If you have any accessibility requirements please let us know.
