A new Smartphone App, Ready Qld, has been developed by Volunteering Qld with the research assistance of the University of Queensland. This app is designed to make Queenslanders better equipped in disaster situations and provide an avenue to mobilise volunteers in disaster situations. The App informs people about preparedness for disasters, providing resources, checklists and advice and real-time updates and information about volunteering opportunities in your local area. To download the App, search READY QLD on the App store or click here for more information.
