Fire Prevention
Fire prevention starts with you - our community. We would like to provide you with the knowledge to implement safety measures to protect your family, animals and property.
A lot of the information on this page is sourced or linked to the South Australian Country Fire Service (CFS). The CFS Website contains a lot of information and advice that is very informative and can assist you in your preparation for the fire danger season. Please take the time to have a look at the information at www.cfs.sa.gov.au
Preparation of your home and property is an essential key throughout the year to ensure that you, your family and your property survive. A well prepared home is more likely to survive a bushfire than one that hasn’t been prepared. More information can be found on how you can prepare your property at Prepare your property .
