Tradies and insurance assessors are invited to attend a free event to learn about residential rebuilding, post-flood, at the Mullum Leagues Club on June 16 from 5 till 8pm.

Co-organiser, Sasha Mainsbridge, Byron Shire Residential Flood Adaptation Project Manager, Mullum Cares Inc, says James Davidson from JDA Co. and guests ‘will share their experience rebuilding flood-resilient in Qld over the last decade’.

‘They understand the role of insurers, and the challenges faced by trades trying to help property owners rebuild more flood-resilient. There will be ample time for you to raise your concerns and ask questions. The event is free, with dinner and a drink provided. Bookings are essential, as the venue capacity is limited’.
