THE Marburg and District Residents Association and the Rosewood Community Centre have received a Resilience Care Kit from the Ipswich City Council.
The kits are aimed at improving safety and comfort for community members in times of need.
Included in the kits are defibrillators for some community centres, USB charging stations, battery-operated radios, sanitary and comfort items, cleaning supplies and tea and coffee supplies.
Councillor Russell Milligan said community centres and organisations played a vital role and are recognised as key stakeholders across our city.
“Last year, Ipswich City Council held a resilient leadership program for community centre leaders, to build on their leadership capacity and ability to support their communities.
“We heard from our community leaders that their centres needed some more practical resources to better care for residents in need.”
