25.01.2022 A hazard reduction burn will occur today at Petsch Creek Road / Bramley Drive. We assist landholders conducting hazard reduction burns (HRB) to reduce bushfire risk ahead of bushfire season. HRBs are conducted during favourable weather conditions to lessen fuel loads on the ground. We work to minimise the potential impact of smoke, however nearby residents may need to close windows and doors.

25.01.2022 Grab the umbrellas and batten down the hatches!

24.01.2022 Congratulations to our recruits who undertook their FMS (firefighter minimum skills) assessment yesterday! Good job on the hard work they’ve put in and big shout out to everyone who helped with their training!

24.01.2022 We spy with our little eyes our very own Raff hopping into action! Great stuff mate!

23.01.2022 'Tis the season to get excited!

23.01.2022 The weekend has been very busy for most of the Brigades across the Gold Coast with numerous Hazard Reduction Burns and providing support to the Springbrook fire.... There was also responses to local incidents for several Brigades as well. On Saturday there was over 55 volunteer firefighting appliances on the ground attending the HRB's and incidents which would have seen nearly 200 volunteers out in their communities. Now we need to look at the weekend and see what this has cost our Group and assist Brigades where possible with replacing drinking water and damaged equipment if necessary. Since Friday the Gold Coast Group has sent out a pallet load, 60 cartons, of drinking water and will need to cover associated costs with catering for the crews as well. There will also be the printing and paper used during these operations so crews had maps and incident information. The money that will be used to cover these costs will come from the $1 levy that is provided to the Gold Coast Group from the community that is collected by the GCCC. We no longer have the time to keep fighting to secure funding into the future as we now have to work on the ground supporting the many volunteers that are working hard to protect their communities. It is now Fire Season and operations on the ground is critical. We are hoping the State Government and the GCCC can work together to sort out this funding situation our Brigades are facing come next year so the community knows that their volunteer Rural Fire Brigades will still be able to function come June next year. #everylittledollarcounts #onedollarlevy #GCRatePayers #SupportYourLocalRFB #volunteer #GCCommunity #hazardreductionburns #2020fireseason #bushfirepreparedness #bushfiresurvival #prepareactsurvive #GCbrigades

Residents should close their doors and windows and keep medication close by if suffering from a respiratory condition. Motorists should use caution and drive to conditions. If you believe your property is under threat, you should call Triple Zero (000) immediately.
