Winter Ready 2

This year’s campaign highlights the ‘whole of government’ approach taken to plan and prepare for the challenges of winter. Core to this campaign is the message to be prepared, stay safe and know where to find help if needed.

The Be Winter Ready website provides helpful information for resilience this winter for people, their families and communities.

The main objectives of the ‘Be Winter-Ready’ information campaign are to:

  • provide practical advice on how best to prepare for the coming winter
  • ensure the public are aware of where advice and help can be found, if needed
  • reassure the public that preparations are being made and arrangements have been put in place to ensure that there will be a coordinated response to severe weather events
