Scion have also said they would love to learn more about members experiences and needs as firefighters. If you have been at a fire in a native forest, and could spare 5 minutes to fill out this questionnaire, it would contribute to their current work evaluating fire risk in native forests: https://forms.gle/WZBHsRGorS8nHmGe9.
