MidCoast Council
Following large scale events like the May 2025 floods it is important for the organisations that responded to unpack and workshop the experience to identify improvements for future events.
MidCoast Council invites all those responsible groups to come together to discuss how the situation unfolded, reflect on the incredible efforts, learn what worked well and strengthen future responses. Those insights are invaluable when it comes to planning for future events.
The workshop - Reflecting, Learning and Strengthening Future Recovery will be held at Yalawanyi Ganya, Council Chambers, 2 Biripi Way, Taree and facilitated by the Australian Red Cross.
The workshop is relevant to all community groups and organisations that established hubs, provided financial or material assistance or extended services in response to the floods.
The workshop will provide a constructive space to share experiences, identify what worked well and explore what could be improved from supporting volunteers and managing donations to communicating clearly to avoid duplication of efforts.
There will also be a focus on future events on how we can all work better together through clear communication, strong coordination and shared preparedness.
Date: Thursday 19 March
Time: 9.30am to 2.30pm
Venue: Yalawanyi Ganya, Council Chambers, 2 Biripi Way Taree
Registration: by 13 March https://www.midcoast.nsw.gov.au/community-and-service-hubs-workshop
