Our second Father's Day feature is Lachie Elliott, Captain of the Taradale Fire Brigade, pictured here with his son Ollie who is also a CFA (Country Fire Authority) volunteer.

Lachie's father Lindsay was also part of CFA, notably during Ash Wednesday when the family lost their home. Lachie was only six years old when this happened, viewing it as the event which started his calling to join CFA.

Ollie answered the call to join CFA at a young age, completing the junior program at 11, his general firefighting course at 16 and is now a respected member of the Brigade at 18.

One family, three generations of emergency volunteers, an incredible story to share this Father's Day.
