Why prepare?
They're in our backyard
Australia’s unique climate and vegetation make it a hotspot for bushfires. It’s not a matter of “if” but “when.”
Protect our mates
Our community is our strength. By preparing, we look out for each other, ensuring our families, friends, and neighbours are safe.
Guard our home
Our homes are more than just buildings; they hold memories, dreams, and years of hard work.
What's your Bushfire Emergency Plan?
Tune In, Don’t Tune Out! – Always follow emergency warnings. Whether it’s on the radio, TV, or social media, stay updated.
Know Your Local Fire Warning System – From “Advice” to “Catastrophic,” understand what each level means.
Pack Your Bushfire Emergency Kit – Pack essentials like water, medications, important documents, and a battery-powered radio. Be ready to grab and go!
Prep Your Castle – Clear gutters, trim overhanging branches, and maintain a defendable space around your home.
