πŸš’πŸ’™ National Volunteer Week 2026 πŸ’™πŸš’
This week we celebrate the incredible people who give their time, energy, skills, and heart to support our community. We are incredibly proud and lucky to have others who also work the hard Mahi with us.
At Amberley Volunteer Fire Brigade, our volunteers come from all walks of life, yet they share one common goal – being there when our community needs them most. Whether it's responding to fires, motor vehicle accidents, medical emergencies, severe weather events, community education, fundraising, training, or maintaining our equipment and station, our volunteers are always ready to answer the call.
Behind every pager activation are dedicated individuals and supportive families who make countless sacrifices to serve others. Their commitment, professionalism, and willingness to help make a real difference every day.
To all our brigade members, support personnel, families, and volunteers throughout New Zealand – thank you for everything you do. Your contribution strengthens our communities and makes them safer places to live.
This National Volunteer Week, we proudly celebrate and acknowledge every volunteer who helps keep our community safe.

What a fantastic day at today's Road Crash Rescue Challenge - Day Two of Three! πŸš’πŸš—βœ‚οΈ
Our team has been absolutely outstanding, demonstrating incredible skill, teamwork, communication, and professionalism throughout every scenario. We couldn't be prouder of the effort, determination, and dedication they've shown on the competition floor.
No matter what the final results bring, they are already winners in our eyes. The countless hours of training, commitment, and sacrifice have all shone through today, and they have represented our brigade and community with pride.
A huge congratulations to all participating teams. The standard of competition has been exceptional, and it has been great to see so many talented rescue personnel showcasing their skills.
Thank you to the organisers - UFBA, judges, volunteers, role players, and supporters who help make events like this possible.
We're incredibly proud of our team – you've done yourselves, your brigade, and your community proud! πŸ‘πŸš’

🚨✈️ GOOD LUCK TEAM! ✈️🚨
Tomorrow (Wednesday) our Road Crash Rescue Team heads off to compete against the best rescue teams in the country!
Months of training, countless hours of practice, and a lot of sweat (and probably a few questionable training scenarios!) have all led to this moment.
We know you'll represent our brigade, our community, and yourselves with pride. Remember: work hard, stay focused, trust your training, and most importantly... don't forget where you packed your helmets! 😜
Whether you're cutting, spreading, stabilising, or problem-solving under pressure, we've already seen the dedication and commitment you've put in.
Travel safely, have fun, make some great memories, and show everyone what Amberley can do!
Good luck team β€” we're all behind you! πŸš’πŸ’ͺπŸ†
To our Community, we thank you for your support to help us with our fundraising efforts to support this Crew going!!
