Emergency Help Hub to help residents prepare and recover

Published on 26 October 2023

Residents can now access live disaster updates and emergency alerts through the Emergency Help Hub dashboard on Council’s website.

The online resource provides live data from emergency service providers including NSW Rural Fire Service, NSW State Emergency Service and the Bureau of Meteorology to ensure residents receive real-time updates during emergency situations.

“Our Resilience Hazard Assessment outlined the importance of creating an accessible and central source of information that residents can access during an emergency,” said Mayor George Greiss.

“Emergency Help Hub can help residents prepare before an emergency and reach out to services that can assist with recovery,” said Dr Greiss.

Residents will be able to choose their preferred language, view the latest alerts and connect with local community and emergency services through the dashboard.
