Young children aged between 0-4 are at high risk of home fire fatalities,

burn and scald injuries due to fires and fire play in the home. CFA and FRV recommend that you put smoke alarms in all sleeping areas, especially the areas of one of our most high-risk age groups, children under the age of 10.

If you have young children or close the door for them to sleep, make sure to put smoke alarms in to them and check regularly that they are working.

People who are over 65 or who have a disability are more likely to be affected by disasters, including home fires and bushfires. In Australia, 62% of the people who died in home fires between 2003 and 2017 had a disability.
CFA (Country Fire Authority) and FRV (Fire Rescue Victoria) are working together to reduce these unacceptable statistics.

Prevent, Detect, Escape – Home Fire Safety for people at higher risk is made for people at increased fire risk, and for people who support or care for them.

We had a big clean up at the CFA shed today.
Great effort by all involved!

There is some stuff at the front of the shed that is free for collection.
Some photo frames, chairs, a couple of eskies and a nice retro table.
