Fire emergency: Marton brigade needs more volunteer firefighters

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A volunteer firefighter can make a huge difference to the worst day of someone's life.

Marton currently has about 25 operational firefighters, five operational support members and one administrator but they are looking for more volunteers. Read more about the requirements and benefits of being a firefighter here.

Marton Fire Brigade's information evening about volunteering with Fire & Emergency New Zealand, and the various roles available, is at Marton Fire Station at 6.30pm on Thursday, January 10. There will be a free light supper.

Anyone who has questions, or is interested but unable to attend Thursday's session, can contact Station Officer Kevin Darling on 027 244 5407 or email kevin.darling@fireandemergency.nz
