01.01.2022 12 years ago on this date (7 February 2009)- the infamous Black Saturday fires started. Approximately 400 fires were recorded across Victoria, affecting 78 communities. A total of 173 people died in the fires, and 2,029 houses were lost. So many are still suffering the loss of loved ones, so many are still recovering their livelihoods and so many are still suffering from post traumatic stress, especially the 1000’s of first responders that answered the call that day and for weeks after. We will remember them all!
