Resilient 4017

Resilient 4017 Building a strong & connected community in Brighton, Sandgate, Shorncliffe, Deagon & Bracken Ridge

Resilient 4017 was started by a group of passionate locals in the Brighton, Sandgate, Shorncliffe, Deagon and Bracken Ridge area, keen to bring our community together to plan for the future that’s coming. We aspire to connect with a national network of local grassroots climate resilience groups who are working actively in their communities and discussing what can still be done to make sure that we

avoid runaway climate change. Resilient 4017 is a community-led project where locals will determine the biggest priorities for our area and how we can start to respond to them. We’re focusing heavily on community resilience, mutual aid and building relationships that will create a robust, diverse and connected community of like-minded people. We are seeking broad support from the 4017 community in building this movement, recognising that we all have various skills, ideas and creativity to contribute, and that a diverse and inclusive network of empowered and connected locals is best placed to plan for climate impacts we’re already facing, and will continue to face, and to support one another through the challenges that emerge.

This is great news! We have been surveying residents about the increasing costs we are all feeling from increasingly frequent wild weather events, and who should pay for those costs.

Don’t miss our free screening of Floodland, a doco based on the community-led response to the devastating floods of 2022 in Lismore. Our suburbs here in 4017 were also really hard hit in the same flood event making this a very relevant watch for our community. Join us at Sandgate & Bracken Ridge Action Group Incorporated on Sat 4th July for the film, discussion and food with other locals. Tickets are free but please book your seat via the link in our bio (and in the comments on Facebook). We hope to see you there! β™₯️
