Brigade Toolkit for ACC Petition

Issue date:

The ACC petition gained some massive traction in its first two weeks with over 25,000 signatures - Petition of Katherine Lamont: Give volunteer firefighters the same ACC coverage as paid firefighters

The petition closes on 30 April, so we still have time to get more signatures and keep this alive.

We have been working closely with Katherine Lamont to support her, and together we have created the below social media assets for anyone to use to help continue raising awareness.


Thank you to everyone who jumped in and gave this their support in so many ways.

Katherine has also written the below personal message and asked us to share it with you on her behalf…

"Thank You for your Incredible Support!

The initial response to the petition has been amazing, and I am truly grateful for each and every one of you. Your efforts are making a real impact—we’ve caught the attention of key decision-makers, and several MPs have offered to present the petition to Parliament. We are currently working through these opportunities and will keep you updated.

This is a real chance to be part of meaningful change, and your continued support is invaluable. Please keep sharing the petition, keep the conversation going, and keep reaching out with your ideas and suggestions. Every action you take helps bring us all closer to making a difference.

Thank you for standing with me."
