Recipient story
After Cyclone Alfred destroyed essential arborist tools and a work vehicle, ongoing housing instability has prevented rebuild
2025 Tropical Cyclone Alfred
GIVIT
After Cyclone Alfred, this individual lost essential arborist climbing equipment and their work vehicle. These tools were critical for maintaining consistent employment and earning an income in a physically demanding trade.
Since the cyclone, rebuilding has been extremely difficult. Unexpected housing insecurity has meant that limited financial resources have needed to go towards maintaining stable accommodation rather than replacing the specialised equipment required for work. Without these tools and transport, securing reliable jobs has become challenging, leading to unstable and inconsistent work opportunities.
Despite a strong willingness to return to regular employment and regain financial stability, the loss of equipment and ongoing housing pressures have created significant barriers. Community support will help this person move closer to rebuilding stability after the impacts of the cyclone and the setbacks that followed.
