Sussex Inlet: The Forgotten NSW Rural South Coast Town – Part 2

The recent floods that hit Eastern States of Qld, Northern NSW and Sydney regions also hit the NSW South Coast area. Sussex Inlet is one such township that was hit by the recent floods. As a coastal region the area's residents have to contend with not only flood disasters but also bushfire disasters.

As such one would think that governments of all levels would be prepared to meet any potential disaster head on, working in conjunction with the local communities in the Shoalhaven local government area. Sadly as you listen to this episode (and also part 2); the state of preparedness is left up to local residents to do as best they can.

Sussex Inlet is one such forgotten township in NSW and is under no illusion that it is the only one, even in the Shoalhaven area.

Join Reality Bytes hosts: Desley Casey and Susan Pavlic as they discuss the issues, challenges and dilemmas the residents of the Sussex Inlet area do face; along with a range of practical strategies to support the residents and local government with 3 Sussex Inlet Residents: Nikki, Raye and Sandra.

Discussion includes, however, not limited to:

  • Disaster      recovery strategies
  • Shoalhaven      Council Disaster Recovery Support Officers and supports
  • Giving      Donations
  • Flood      Insurance
  • Sussex      Inlet Roads
  • And,      so much more.
  • And the Reality Bytes Hosts love to end the Lives/Podcasts with a wee Poem.

    (Approximately: 45 minutes.)
