Sorell Council has been advised of a planned and approved burn being undertaken by external fire management contractors at 300 Pittwater Road, Seven Mile Beach, which may affect residents in the Carlton, Lewisham and Dodges Ferry areas.

Scheduled details:
πŸ“… Date: Thursday 11 June 2026
πŸ•š Commencing: 11.00pm
πŸ“ Location: 300 Pittwater Road, Seven Mile Beach
πŸ’¨ Potential impact: Smoke and smoke odour may be noticeable in surrounding areas depending on weather and wind conditions.

Please note:
⚠️ This burn is not being conducted by Sorell Council.
🌦️ The burn is weather dependent and may be cancelled if conditions are unsuitable.

We understand these burns can be an inconvenience for nearby residents and are expected to continue periodically throughout winter and spring, depending on weather conditions. We have been advised that each windrow burn is gradually moving further away from Lewisham, which means smoke impacts on nearby communities are expected to lessen over time.

This notice is provided for community awareness only. If smoke is observed during the scheduled burn period, there is no cause for alarm.

Meet Aleks πŸš’

Why they joined ?
To do something outside of his day-to-day work while also giving back to the community ❀️

Meet Sarah πŸ‘©β€πŸš’πŸš’

How long have you volunteered?
4 years - I joined in April 2022 as part of the brand new Sorell Emergency Services Hub recruitment drive and undertook 12 months of training prior to our station officially opening in March 2023.

Why did you join?
I joined because I wanted to try something new, give back to my community, and meet new people. I didn’t really have a hobby at the time, and something I thought would simply be just a hobby has now become a true passion.

Favourite part of being in the brigade?
My favourite part is that it’s become my second family β€” like having many brothers and sisters. We are more than just a brigade. These are people I look up to, people I learn from, and it’s something I’ve never experienced before. I couldn’t imagine being on this journey with anyone else β€οΈπŸš’

Meet Gary πŸš’β€οΈ

How long have you volunteered?
Gary started his training at Cambridge in June 2022 alongside around 20 other new members before moving to the newly opened Sorell Fire Brigade in March 2023. πŸš’

Why did you join?
He joined as a volunteer to help fill his time in retirement while also giving back and supporting the community in their time of need. Helping others and being there when people need assistance most has become a rewarding part of his journey ❀️🀝

When asked what he enjoys most about being a volunteer firefighter, Gary said:

β€œThe best thing about being a volunteer firefighter is the camaraderie with the other members, especially the younger crew. They help keep me feeling young and valued, and being part of such a supportive team makes volunteering even more rewarding.” ❀️πŸ”₯πŸš’
