Recuperating after Cyclone Debbie
In March 2017 , in the wake of Cyclone Debbie , NSW ’ s North Coast was hit by a disastrous flood . About 20,000 people were evacuated , 10,000 were left without power and safe water , and homes and businesses – including our Northern NSW centre – were devastated . However , thanks to the determination of our resilient staff , our services were up and running again just five days after the destruction .
