Crime Stoppers Tasmania, in collaboration with the Tasmania Fire Service and Tasmania Police, has launched the new campaign ‘You Light It, You Own It.’

This initiative reminds Tasmanians to take responsibility for every fire they light, whether it’s a campfire, a fuel reduction burn, or any other type of fire. The campaign emphasises the importance of adopting safe practices to minimise the risk of bushfires this summer. It also encourages the community to speak up if they witness anyone disregarding total fire ban periods or fire permits.

Advertisements supporting the campaign have been shared across local news platforms and our social media channels.
