Fund fire safety sessions to educate young people and prevent wildfires

Wildfires cause significant damage to ecosystems, homes, and cost taxpayers. In 2011, it was estimated that over 50% of these fires are started by young people, sometimes due to curiosity or thrill-seeking. We would like this programme, which will take place in high-risk areas, to involve collaboration with fire services, schools, and youth groups to educate young people on fire safety, wildfire risks, and prevention, helping reduce fire-setting behaviours.
