1 week to go until The Good Friday Appeal

Around Lavington, Springdale Heights & Ettamogah Rise next Friday, you may hear our sirens throughout the morning.
We will be in the area collecting for the Royal Children's Hospital as part of the Good Friday Appeal.

Our Senior Deputy Captain last week saw first hand where the donations go to and could not express enough what a difference it makes.

Thank you for your previous donations and if you're able to donate this year, when you hear our sirens come out & say Hi and help us fill those tubs.

Happy International Women’s Day
Today we celebrate and thank the incredible women across the RFS and within our brigade — our firefighters, catering and welfare team, support crew, admin and executive members and our junior members.
We also recognise the brigade wives, daughters, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, aunties, and nieces who stand behind us and support what we do every day.
Your dedication, strength and commitment help keep our community safe and our brigade strong. We are proud to work alongside you and are truly grateful for everything you do.
