Recipient story
A community event helping families and individuals learn practical skills and prepare for emergencies
GIVIT
Emergencies can happen at any time, and many in our community don’t have the knowledge or resources to respond effectively. Prep Your Kit Day is designed to help people gain practical skills and confidence in preparing for unexpected events. Attendees will participate in hands-on workshops run by CoGC Disaster Management Team, SES, Red Cross, and Burleigh Men’s Shed, including creating emergency kits, learning household safety tips, and practical skills such as basic car maintenance. Children can join engaging activities like the Red Cross Pillowcase Workshop, while adults receive guidance on planning and preparing for their families’ needs. By attending, community members leave better equipped, more confident, and ready to respond to emergencies, helping to build a stronger, safer, and more resilient community.
