Recovery, Resilience and Readiness - Check in

The Community Recovery team at Council would like to check in with you about how you are travelling at this time of year as anniversaries of last summer’s fires come around. We are wondering what, if any, community activities or memorials might like our support over the next couple of months. It is also completely ok not to want to do anything!

Red Cross say that often the anticipation of an anniversary is more difficult and painful than the day (or days) itself. Some people may attend community memorials, others will choose to spend time with family and friends. For others it may be important to spend some time alone. Dr Rob Gordon has a short video about this time HERE

If you would like to do something in your community during this time, please get in touch. Also, please be aware that there are still a range of supports available during this time. Call the Community Recovery Officer on 4560 4489 for more information.
