A Message of Hope and Resilience One Year On

Today, Thursday 26 November, marks one year since the start of the Currowan Bushfires in the Shoalhaven.

Shoalhaven City Council’s Mayor, Amanda Findley said “One year on Shoalhaven City Council would like to recognise the contribution, generosity, and goodwill of those who came to the aid of Shoalhaven residents during the Currowan Bushfires”.

“There are countless residents, emergency support services, volunteer groups and community service providers, not for profits and government agencies who went above and beyond to protect our community.

Whilst it has been a challenging year the Shoalhaven has shown it is a resilient community.

And today’s message is one of hope. We have seen and continue to see extraordinary compassion and kindness shown to our community.

Let us remember to stay connected and committed to supporting one another.
