Order campaign postcards and posters and find out how you can help firefighters by clicking here.
We've all been watching as the summer fires rage across the state. Our firefighters are at the front line risking their health and life to protect us, our families and our homes.
But they cannot protect themselves from toxic chemicals and smoke on the job.
For firefighters, the risk of contracting certain types of cancer are 5-10 times higher, and they have 2 to 3 times the lung cancer risk of a smoker.

Care for The West - Volunteer
Together we’ve achieved so much and we want to make the rest of 2013 even bigger and better!
With your help we have saved Footscray Dental Clinic, secured funding for Community Health and secured funding for the Westgate Punt.
But there is more to be done, the Liberals are continuing down their path of extreme cuts and the ALP has turned its back on the Western Suburbs.
Support our firefighters
Firefighters put their health at risk to protect us, so it is very important that we provide protection for them.
However, it is almost impossible for firefighters to access WorkCover compensation and insurance if they get cancer from exposure to toxic chemicals and smoke on the job. This is less protection against workplace injury and illness than the average worker, yet firefighters risk their health and life to protect the community.

Footscray Dental Clinic Saved!
Congratulations! We saved the Footscray Dental Clinics!
The government has announced a committment of $9.7 million for the Western Region Health Centre (WRHC) to build a new dental clinic.
The Footscray dental clinics provide emergency and general dental care to 10,000+ children and adults in the West each year. However, neglect from subsequent governments has left the clinic crumbling and calls for the clinic to be rebuilt have been ignored since 2007, until this community campaign win!
Many hundreds of people signed and sent postcards to the Premier, emailed the Premier from my website, and spread the word on social media. This campaign has shown that the community are prepared to take action to protect their community health care services, and can win!

Remind Premier Napthine of his own words supporting Cash for Containers

In the 2010 election year Mr Napthine said:
"I have been a long-time supporter of container deposit legislation for Victoria. I have argued for a bottle and can deposit scheme in the Parliament and in the media."
"The state Liberal and National Coalition strongly supports the introduction of a Victorian and national drink bottle and can refund scheme."
"The scheme works well in South Australia and should be introduced into Victoria and then become a National scheme."
Well said Mr Premier!
