Resilient Uki Incorporated

We are a diverse group of community volunteers living on the land of the Bundjalung People, in the shadow of Wollumbin mountain, along the Tweed River and the many creeks and springs that feed it. We work collaboratively and compassionately to strengthen Uki and its surrounding communities to become more connected and resilient in this changing world. We are here to support and inspire the community to help themselves and each other.

We formed Resilient Uki Inc. (RUKI) as a not-for-profit incorporated association in May 2022, to focus on supporting the Greater Uki area to prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies, disasters and crises.

RUKI has a multi-hazard focus but is built on the foundations of the Uki Flood Group which was established by volunteers in 2014, and has done extensive groundwork in keeping our community informed of flooding risks and response.

We envisage a connected, robust, resilient, regenerative and healthy community where these strengths sustain us in the face of adversity.

We see the Greater Uki community as a strong grassroots base of neighbourhood groups, working together to prepare for the future, while supporting each other to have a sense of safety, well-being and sustainability in our daily lives.
