The Auckland Anniversary Weekend Floods in 2023 showed us what flood impacts can look like across Auckland. We can't control the weather, and it's not always possible to prevent flooding, but there are things we can do to prepare for storms and minimise flood damage to our homes. Come along to hear an Ōtara local, Margaret Faletagoai, share the story of how her family made changes to their home to prepare for future flooding impacts and worked to understand Auckland Council's regulations around flood compliance. Hear practical tips for reducing flood risks and damage to property and bring your questions for Margaret - she has a wealth of knowledge!
6.00 - 7.30pm, Thursday 22 January 2026
