Rural Fire Brigades Badges

The Rural Fire Brigades badges (above) were designed by members of the Wattle Day Association and Simon Yates of Graphic Ark Pty Ltd, to support our volunteer rural fire brigades. This initiative has now finished.

The 2013 badge features a bright blue background to represent the true blue colour of an Australian sky, and the the colour of the rim is a nod to Canberra’ centenary as it is the same colour as Canberra’s official yellow colour.

There are strong links between Wattle (Australia’s floral emblem and national icon) and bushfire brigades (local community heroes). Each year in the spring brigades engage with their communities at street stalls and other events to raise awareness of fire preparedness.

If you are interested in having one of these badges for a donation to the WDA of $3 each for a minimum of 10 badges plus postage, please contact our President
