Community, Kindness & Coming Back Stronger
Our community has been deeply affected by the devastating Longwood bushfire that ripped through our region in Victoria. This fire has destroyed homes, sheds and farms, taken precious livestock, and tragically, one of our own team members has lost their home. The emotional toll is immense, and the impacts are still unfolding for families and neighbours alike.
In towns like Longwood, Ruffy, Creightons Creek and surrounding communities, firefighters and volunteers have worked around the clock to protect lives and properties, but the scale of this disaster, with hundreds of structures lost and vast areas of land burned, has left lasting damage and heartache.
