Corbell Launches ACT SES StormSafe Campaign

Recently Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Simon Corbell launched the ACT State Emergency Service’s StormSafe campaign, at Floriade. The StormSafe campaign is urging Canberrans need to prepare for the ACT storm season in order to minimise damage and risk, during the upcoming storm period.
“With the storm season here from now until till March, it is important for all of us to prepare to minimise damage and risk at our homes,” Mr Corbell said. “Once again this season, the ACTSES has partnered with the NRMA and is reminding the ACT community that ‘doing a little could save the lot’.
Mr Corbell explained that Clearing gutters, trimming trees and branches, securing loose outdoor furniture as well as replacing any broken roof tiles are some of the ways we can all be more StormSafe. Corbell added that Last financial year, there were 1,417 calls for help to the ACTSES for storm and flood assistance.
