Just in case...

Christmas is a time for joy and happiness however with the cost of living rising, for many across South East Queensland and Australia, Christmas can also be a stressful or challenging time.

Christmas is a luxury we all deserve but for many that's unfortunately not the case. During this festive season, please reach out to your community, family and friends if you or someone you know is struggling.

We're a community known for getting behind each other, and there is certainly support out there for those that may need it this Christmas time.

With TC Alfred on the approach towards SEQLD (Brisbane, Ipswich, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and inland) here are some things you can do to prepare:

➡️ Clear your yard of tree branches and secure loose items that could become dangerous during high winds.

➡️ If you haven't got one already, pack an emergency kit for the eventuality of extended periods without power and even no potable water.

➡️ Ensure you have at least a week's worth of medication in the event you are isolated.

➡️ In the event of local or extended flooding, know safe access routes. And if any road is flooded, do not attempt to cross it.

➡️ Please please...do not panic buy - only purchase what you need at this time.

➡️ Finally, you will see a lot of information on social media this week. Please only rely on trusted sources of information such as Government pages as these are verified and up to date.
