No matter your personal situation, planning for extreme weather events is essential. Research shows people who are prepared for severe weather recover faster than those who rely solely on outside help.
 

In this campaign’s television commercial, JT walks us through real-life scenarios, demonstrating how severe weather can disrupt not only our own lives but also those we care for. It’s a powerful reminder that even if you’re not directly impacted, the broader effects—such as power outages, road closures, and interruptions to services—can still create significant challenges.

With recent statewide data showing that only 19% of Queenslanders have a written emergency plan, this campaign delivers a clear message.
