A workshop facilitated by Sasha Mainsbridge.
Raising houses above likely future flood levels preserves buildings and minimises disruption to the lives of people that live in them. Join one of our workshops to learn more about house raising and what you need to think about before you start your project.
These workshops are designed to assist anyone considering raising their home – old or new – to protect themselves from future floods. Whether you’ve qualified for government assistance, or you’re just taking the initiative, our goal is to help you think through the critical issues in order to make your project truly successful. Which, in our book, means both lifting your home to a safer level and carefully considering the challenges and opportunities this creates.
Sasha Mainsbridge has worked extensively in corporate insurance and conservation and land management. She founded non-profit Mullum Cares, in 2015, and continues to work with local residents encouraging them to reconsider their consumer choices, aiming to reduce carbon emissions and global resource depletion. After her home flooded in early 2022, she recognised the urgency of adapting our homes to mitigate climate change impacts.
