Get fire-ready with BlazeAid’s All Fired Up grants

As fire season approaches, it’s the perfect time for farmers to check that their Private Fire Fighting Units (PFFUs) are in top shape. BlazeAid’s All Fired Up grant is helping farmers in bushfire-prone areas upgrade their on-farm fire equipment — with up to $10,000 in funding available.

Eligible applicants can use the grant for essential upgrades such as diesel pump conversions, baffled water tanks, hoses, UHF radios, safety gear, and other equipment needed for effective fire response.

Finchetts Plumbing is ready to help local farmers prepare. Our team can provide quotes for your grant application, recommend suitable equipment, and make sure your system is working safely and efficiently ahead of the summer season.

BlazeAid is a volunteer-based organisation that supports rural communities recovering from disasters like fires, floods and droughts. This program aims to strengthen local preparedness by ensuring farmers have reliable, safe fire-fighting setups.
