Everything at the Seed (Social and Enabling Environment Development) Foundation, a refuge and community organisation for the trans and other marginalised community was destroyed by the floods last weekend. From the plywood walls inside the centre to the furniture, computers and documents - everything was completely destroyed or damaged.

"Being a small NGO, the damage to Seed is huge. We lost everything - computers, reports, tables, chairs.....everything you'd expect to find in an office. Our walls and doors are also ruined as the walls are made of plywood and it soaked up the water.
