BLAZEAID WELCOMES DONATED EQUIPMENT

Disaster recovery organisation BlazeAid has welcomed new equipment donated by Business NSW.

The gear will boost volunteers’ ability to help flood, and fire recovery on the ground across the Mid North Coast.

“After what they’ve been through with the fires and floods this is our way of giving back to them the volunteers who have helped get their life back together,” Business NSW Mid North Coast regional manager Kellon Beard said.

“It just gives you a lift, it just lets you know the community appreciates what you’re doing, it makes your job easier to do because instead of sending out 3 teams we’ve got enough equipment to send out 4,” BlazeAid vice president Kris Male added.
