The Lord Mayor’s Distress Relief Fund (LMDRF) has been launched to assist those affected by the Wooroloo and Hills bushfires, following the announcement from the State Government of WA.​

LMDRF was established to provide alleviation and relief of distress, suffering, hardship, and misfortune to individuals, as determined by the WA Government and/or Board of the Fund.​

The CBA Group, including Bankwest, has donated $50,000 to the appeal. It sends its thoughts to all those affected and extends its thanks to the emergency services who work tirelessly to protect the community.​

As of Saturday 6 February 2021, Bankwest branches are able to accept LMDRF donations in-branch due to the lifting of lockdown provisions.
