Mullum brigade members wish everyone a safe and happy Easter.
If you’re travelling stay safe and hopefully the Easter Bunny finds you.

Have you checked your smoke alarm?
If you haven’t make sure you put this on your calendar to do this week

As daylight saving ends and we gain an extra hour, it’s a great opportunity to take a moment for home fire safety. It is important to check your smoke alarms to ensure they’re working properly.

It’s crucial your home has working smoke alarms, as they provide an early warning and give you and your family valuable time to escape during a house fire.

With the cooler months approaching, please stay safe this winter. There are several simple steps you can take, such as creating a home escape plan, ensuring your smoke alarm is working and keeping all items at least a meter from the heater.

On Sunday afternoon the brigade was paged to a fire in New Brighton.
The fire was eventually located on a small island to the north of Brunswick Heads.
Not having “Floaties” for our truck….a very Good Samaritan kindly took some of our crew, a portable pump and hose across to the island on his boat as there were reports that a person had burns. We nicknamed it Boatie-bimby 😍😍
If you know this kind person…..please convey our thanks.

The brigade volunteers have already been responded to false alarm calls to ‘Smoke in the Vicinity”.

Please only ring Triple zero if you see this burn has escaped
