Volunteer Fire Brigades need your help
Volunteers are the backbone of the fire service, but some of our brigades are experiencing significant volunteer shortages. This can impact our ability to respond to callouts. We need more volunteers in places like Northland, East Cape, and the West Coast. If you, or someone you know, is keen to be a volunteer in one of these communities, then we urge you to get in touch with your local brigade.
Age, gender, and fitness are no barrier to being a volunteer. Step forward and help us to keep your community safe.

So we want to hear what you think:

-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
