Perth firefighters prepare dance routine for calendar launch
Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 23 Oct, 21:50 · Archive
Perth firefighters are rehearsing dances for the launch of their annual calendar on 20 November to raise funds for the Perth Children's Hospital Foundation.
Perth firefighters are preparing for the launch of their 20th annual calendar at The Court Hotel on 20 November. The event will feature a dozen firefighters performing group dances and individual dance breaks, with each representing a calendar month. Calendars will be distributed at the launch and available for public purchase from the following day.
The calendar raises funds for the Perth Children's Hospital Foundation to support children with burn injuries. The initiative has raised an expected $2.5 million over two decades. Adam Manera from Perth Fire Station said he had been practising dance moves at home with his own children, despite not having performed on stage since primary school. He said the cause was personal after his own son underwent heart surgery at six months old.
Among those who have received treatment at the hospital is 11-year-old Juliana Gravina, who was admitted following a hot water bottle accident in September last year.
