SUCCESSFUL DISASTER & EMERGENCY SESSION
The 60 community members who attended the free session held at the Meeniyan Hall, May 14th are now more prepared for any disaster including fire, flood, storm and power outages. A presentation by James Bremner from the South Gippsland Shire and a hands-on talk from Wendy Caple representing Australian Red Cross took the attendees through the essential planning needed in any emergency. Everyone was given a bag containing lots of information with a mini solar cranking flashlight and encouraged to download the relevant apps [ Emergency Plus, Vic Emergency, ABC Radio and BOM Weather ] to help in any emergency or disaster.
