More about us

We are a brigade that has 27 active members, we are not only a fire brigade but also incline line rescue team, a first responder for St John Ambulance as well as the local Civil Defence team.

The Brigade was founded in 1968 by locals who formed a Fire party after a large fire. The Brigade operated out of a tin shed with our 1942 Ford V8 fire appliance which we still own and operate and public events

Use of funds
