The Australian Firefighters Calendar is known for its charitable efforts, often supporting various causes, including those related to disaster relief. While we primarily focus on wildlife and dog and cat refuges in Australia, it's not uncommon for us to expand our support to international relief efforts, such as those following Hurricane Helene in the US.
It's been a dream of mine to be in a firefighter calendar, it first started when many people would ask is if I was one of the firefighters from the calendars after I told them I was a firefighter. I would usually respond by laughing it off and say no, but now I am truly grateful and blessed to be in the world's biggest calendar.
Being the first Black firefighter featured in this iconic calendar is more than just a personal achievement for me, but it's a chance to show others you can break barriers, represent your community and be a part of a good cause on a global scale.
When I was younger in my fire and medic career it began as a joke because I felt like I could never be physically capable or fit enough to be one of those men you see in the calendar.
