HOW BUSHFIRE READY ARE YOU?
With bushfire season, beginning earlier and finishing later with drier winters in between it is time to consider your fire preparedness and take time to develop your Bushfire Plan.
This begins with a 5-minute fire chat with your family to developing a fire plan to determine if you are prepared to stay and defend and when you are prepared to leave.
To stay and defend requires good planning and being physically, mentally and emotionally able to do so and having the right firefighting equipment available.
