Every year more than 500 packs filled with vital emergency information are delivered to residents as part of council’s annual Cyclone Saturday community event.
This Saturday (November 19) will see another uptake of these packs at the 2022 event happening at Caneland Central from 9am to 1pm.
Come along and speak with a diverse range of emergency experts and agencies, including State Emergency Services, Queensland Fire and Emergency Services, Queensland Police Service, Mackay Hospital and Health Service, RACQ CQ Rescue, Red Cross and more.
Mayor Williamson said there was one simple action that would make a significant difference in having the Mackay region prepared for a widespread emergency.
“If every resident registered to receive emergency notifications via council’s Disaster Dashboard (disaster.mackay.qld.gov.au), it would go a long way to having our community prepared,” he said.
