Get Ready Queensland
When it comes to extreme weather events in Queensland, it’s not a matter of ‘if’ but ‘when’.
Queensland is the most natural disaster impacted state in Australia, exposing our communities and infrastructure to repeated damage.
As Queenslanders we understand the impacts from natural disasters can include minor inconveniences such as transport delays, needing to use alternative travel routes, collecting children early from school, massive queues at the petrol station or supermarket, and loss of power or internet connection.
And then there are the alarming scenarios like flood waters moving swiftly toward your house, a loved one unable to get home, and leaving behind pets during evacuation.
You can't control the weather or when the next disaster will hit Queensland, but you can be aware and prepared. Get Ready Queensland helps you to take the steps to protect what’s most important to you.
