The national Triple Zero (000) campaign aims to build awareness of the Triple Zero (000) number and educate the community about when to use the number.
The campaign serves to reinforce to members of the public their responsibilities when calling the Triple Zero (000) emergency number both in nominating the required emergency service and identifying the location they are calling from.
The campaign uses the Internet, newspapers, radio and television to promote messages of Triple Zero (000). In addition, elements of the campaign have been translated to reach culturally and linguistically diverse communities throughout Australia.
Help us to communicate the Triple Zero message
The Triple Zero Message has been produced by the Triple Zero Awareness Working Group. They need your help!
The working group has produced a short video presented by Chief Superintendant Paul McGuiggan (Vimeo website) from Fire & Rescue New South Wales. The video encourages community organisations to use the Triple Zero logos to raise awareness of the Triple Zero number.
You can apply to use the Triple Zero logo and information by emailing Fire and Rescue NSW on TripleZero@fire.nsw.gov.au with 'Triple Zero Logo' as the subject line.
