Insulate Lismore

One of the the biggest floods in modern Australian history inundated Lismore in Northern NSW in February of this year. Since then, just when they thought they would be rebuilding their comminuty, they experienced more devastating rainfall. The 14.4 metre floodwaters left many residents without shelter.

The Brown Plumb foundation has partnered with the Insulate Lismore volunteer group to help restore rooms in houses that are currently inhabitable. Through the dedicated work of many volunteers, the group has, to date, refurbished 16 houses and provided many spaces capable of being heated.

While we are prioritising the most vulnerable, includeing people with disabilities and and families with young children, there are any more stranded families who need our assistance get back in their homes and provide adequate shelter so they can start to rebuild their lives again.
