While there may be some people experiencing water problems, overall Carindale has been extremely lucky and generally not in danger of flooding. Our region is particularly well placed to be of assistance. We’re close to flood affected areas such as Bulimba, Murarrie, Hawthorne, Coorparoo and West End and there’s particular help that’s easier to give right now, logistically, because of geography. And we’re able to help  regional Queensland through money donations and many other ways, now and in the future.

This post is for both information updates and ways that we can best help.
