Get Bushfire Resilient – online webinars

1 August 2023

An El Nino summer is predicted which means dry conditions will increase fire risk this summer. Information from Bushfire Resilience is available to households in rural areas and on the urban fringe to make our homes more bushfire resilient.

A series of free workshops about bushfire resilience are being offered in the coming months.
