Resilience Brilliance

Celebrating the Australians Building Stronger Communities

Every act of kindness. Every hour volunteered. Every pay-it-forward gesture.

Every community that prepares, supports and inspires.

That's Resilience Brilliance.

And together, it changes lives.

Ordinary people doing extraordinary things
Stronger communities today, safer communities tomorrow
Recognising, sharing and inspiring resilience
Together, we're building a more resilient Australia

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT

Our Newest Resilience Champion

Meet Logan, currently in Queensland
Logan has volunteered for a number of charities and has a special affection for helping farmers.

A retired accountant, for the last seven months, Logan has farm-stayed in his motorhome on three farms in different communities in Queensland.

Giving his time and resources freely to help out struggling farmers manage their livestock and their land, providing essential relief to families who have suffered flooding, has earned him a great deal of respect and recognition as our latest Resilience Champion.

Building Community Resilience Together

Great communities don't simply respond to disasters; they prepare for them
Every recognised Resilience Brilliance community has one thing in common - they don't wait for disasters to happen before taking action.
Through practical preparedness, stronger neighbourhood connections and innovative resilience initiatives, communities are reducing disaster impacts before they occur.
ReadyTakeAction is helping make that possible.

RESILIENCE STARTS BEFORE A DISASTER

Prepared Before.

Stronger After.

Resilience isn't only measured by how communities recover. It's also measured by how well they prepare.
Through ReadyTakeAction, households can build personalised preparedness plans, improve their Preparedness Score, strengthen local connections and access practical tools that reduce disaster impacts before they occur.
When preparedness and community come together, resilience becomes a reality.
