Wye River - Separation Creek - Forrest - Birregurra (Victoria) Fire Support 2015-2016
On the 24th December 2015, LifeAid was requested to provide Fire Fighter support by DELWP (Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning ex-DEPI) initially on the fire front in Wye River and Separation Creek where over 160 houses sadly were lost. This later expanded to Base Camp support at Forrest and Birregurra. Over the duration of the deployment 24th Dec 2015 to 22nd Jan 2016 LifeAid tended to the Crews of not only DELWP but also the CFA, CFS, NZ Fire Service and the MFB.
