18.01.2022 Today is International Volunteers Day It is viewed as a unique chance for volunteers and organisations to celebrate their efforts, to share their values, and to promote their work among their communities. We reckon we have a pretty epic bunch of incredible volunteers here in Esperance. ... And some days it isn’t always lights, sirens and responding to 000 calls, some days it’s about hanging out and squirting the hose. #esperancevfrs #volunteerfireandrescueservice #bustinourssavinyours #drinkmorewater #departmentoffireandemergencyservices #dfes #volunteeringinwa #volunteer #esperancecommunity

16.01.2022 Throw back to the 2019 Annual Awards Dinner Every year in August we host a dinner where we acknowledge our volunteers contribution this includes the presentation of service medals and also award such as firefighter of the year, it’s also an opportunity to thank our volunteers partners for all that they also commit to our brigade. It’s a real team effort, there is always a bunch of people standing behind our volunteers so that they can skip things like dinner or Saturday m...orning house chores or mowing the lawn to attend call outs. So shout out to everyone who is doing what they can when they can! Thanks to Shire of Esperance and the Esperance Civic Centre for making this event happen for us. #esperancevfrs #volunteerfireandrescueservice #departmentoffireandemergencyservices #dfes #volunteeringinwa #volunteer #esperancecommunity

16.01.2022 Last summer we spent days helping out our Bush Fire Brigade mates to deal with a number of large fires throughout the district Back burning is a fire fighting tactic that is used to combat wildfires, deliberately initiated in front of an active fire front ... The back burning operations consumes some of the combustible material and creates a fire belt that the wildfire has difficulty crossing. A huge amount of planning is undertaken, the types of important things that are considered include fuel load, weather conditions and resources. With all things considered a plan is prepared prior to back burning operations being undertaken by crews. #esperancevfrs #volunteerfireandrescueservice #backburning #bushfireseason #summerinaustralia #departmentoffireandemergencyservices #dfes #volunteeringinwa #volunteer #esperancecommunity
