Resilience is our community’s ability to get through tough times, adapt to change, and keep growing stronger - together. Resilient Randwick is a Council wide strategy designed to help our community respond to challenges and bounce back stronger.

Why resilience matters

Resilience is about more than bouncing back; it is about moving forward together.

For Randwick, this means making sure our people, places, businesses, and systems can adapt and thrive through change.
Some challenges happen suddenly, such as a storm, flood, or power outage. These are acute shocks.

Others build over time, like rising cost of living, mental health challenges, or housing stress. These are chronic stresses.
By understanding the shocks and stresses that affect life in Randwick, we can plan ahead and make sure no one is left behind.

What’s next? Watch this space

We’ve just wrapped up a community consultation, where we heard fascinating insights from local residents about the challenges people are facing in Randwick. Your feedback is invaluable and will directly shape Randwick City Council’s new Resilience Strategy.

While we analyse these insights and develop the strategy, there are plenty of ways to stay involved and connected:

• Join the crowds at our popular Plant With Us events. Growing our local canopy and your friendship circle. Winning.
• Come along to the Saturday Circle, a monthly workshop of sustainability ideas, connection to place and to community.
• Visit our What’s On page to discover a wide range of activities tailored to diverse interests and ages.

Stay tuned for updates as we put your ideas into action. Watch this space!
