20250226 10441600 1.0 TRUE Bushfire Last Resort Refuges CFS has developed a set of places that can offer relative safety from bushfire. They are divided into two categories, and are called Bushfire Safer Places and Last Resort Refuges.A Last Resort Refuge is a space or building which could be used as a place of last resort for individuals to go to and remain in during the passage of a bushfire through their neighbourhood. It is an area that provides a minimum level of protection from the immediate life threatening effects of radiant heat and direct flame contact in a bushfire. A Last Resort Refuge is intended to provide a place of relative safety during a bushfire, but does not guarantee the survival of those who assemble there, and should only be used when personal Bushfire Survival Plans cannot be implemented or have failed.It is important not to confuse a Last Resort Refuge with a Bushfire Safer Place, Last Resort Refuges are your LAST choice of location to shelter from a Bushfire.
