Caroline Springs Fire Brigade is on the lookout for new recruits.
“Whether you’re interested in responding to emergency calls, helping behind the scenes, or supporting community safety, there’s a place for you,” the brigade wrote on social media.
As a Country Fire Authority (CFA) volunteer, locals can take on a range of roles, including operational positions that involve becoming a trained firefighter and responding to fires, road rescues and other emergencies, as well as support roles in administration, logistics, events, social media and community fire safety.
There are also community engagement roles, where volunteers educate local residents about fire safety and prevention, as well as training and equipment roles, where they assist with readiness, maintenance and drills.
Anybody aged 18 and over can sign up, however they must live within eight minutes of either Caroline Springs or Hillside fire stations.
The brigade emphasised that there are flexible roles to suit different lifestyles and availability.
No previous experience is required and full training is provided.
