PAVS - Property Advice Visit Service 2025

Prepare Your Property

Plan, Protect, Survive.

Spring is with us and now is the time to start thinking about how well prepared are you and your property in the event of a bushfire.

Upwey CFA provides Property Advice Visit Service (PAVS), an awareness-raising program delivered by trained brigade members. PAVS is a free service that typically involves a 15- 20 minute meeting at your property. You will receive

  • publications
  • planning templates
  • information about your local risk and
  • preparing for a bushfire

Visit upweycfa.org.au/community-support/ for more information about PAVS and how to book a visit.

Fire Fighting Training September 2025

Community Awareness Message 1-2025

Two CFA training props will be positioned in the temporary car park beside UT Crash until early October.

Local brigades will be using them at various times to conduct fire fighting training drills. These drills are only performed in a controlled environment with a number of pre-planned safety precautions in place.

If you do see fire in the general area of the props or car park, before calling 000 please check it is not from one of these props being used.
