This program is designed to offer assistance to residents in the community that are unable to prepare their own homes for reasons such as they are elderly, injured or in financial hardship by offering assistance with Bush Fire Preparedness works such as:

Gutter – Cleaning and Clearing
Tree and Shrub – Trimming or Removal
Grass and Vegetation Management
Fire Break Construction and Management
Vehicle Access Points
Inspection of Firefighting Equipment
Reducing any other Risks or Hazards Associated with Bushfires

Our programs are aimed at assisting residents in the community such as people in financial hardship or who have physical difficulties (such as short term injuries or long term injuries), elderly residents, people with a disabilities. Therefore the overall community benefit is that we are helping these people to improve and prepare their homes and properties when they could not previously. This helps to improve the safety of the community and improves the overall preparedness and will hopefully reduce the risks and or the effects that a bush fire may have if it was to occur in there area.

The property not cleaned up could be your neighbour's! A small ember could set your suburb alight this summer.
