Flood Education Kit recognised on the national stage - November 2010
One of the education measures undertaken by the Launceston City Council and the Launceston Flood Authority to ensure residents are prepared for a flood has been highly commended in the Local Government category of the Australian Safer Communities Awards in Canberra.
The Flood Education Kit project was principally developed by the Council's Emergency Management Officer, Bev Allen. The project involved the development, distribution and promotion of a comprehensive Flood Education Kit to educate people in the flood prone area of Invermay/Inveresk on how to protect themselves, their family, pets and property in the event of a flood.
