Fires can happen quickly, and they can be fierce, so have you and your family discussed, revised and practiced your bush fire plan? It is important to have multiple plans that everyone in the household know and understand, including children! These plans need to take into consideration of different scenarios, including plans for children, elderly family members, pets and livestock. There can be many questions you may not have considered, including where you may go in the event of a fire, and what important items you will need to take with you quickly. Below are links to the NSW RFS website.
