22.01.2022 If you or someone you loved was in a life or death situation how much time would you think was ok before help arrived? One minute? Five minutes? Twenty minutes? Maybe two hours? In an emergency EVERY second counts. We know you’re trying to get home to the ones you love but when you block our engine bay it stops us from helping someone else’s loved one when they need us the most. HELP US HELP YOU. Please don’t block our driveway. ...

21.01.2022 Today is a special day in every firefighters heart as we remember the fallen comrades from the September 11th Terrorist attack on the world trade centre. One of our very own, Senior Firefighter Ben Swift visited New York and wrote these very moving words about his experience. Great stuff Swifty. This very morning 19 years ago, a plan was in motion that ultimately lead to the murder of thousands of innocent Americans. The last picture is a very symbolic one. It shows six firef...ighters on ladder 118 coming over the Brooklyn bridge for their last ride. These men saw what was in front of them, knew what they were getting into, and they still went. They still went to try and save as many as they could. All six gentlemen on ladder 118 died that day. This photo represents what the fire service is all about, the service and protection of others. Trial by fire. (Photo/post credits: in memoriam September 11 on Facebook) I still remember the morning so clearly, waking up to the news as 14 year old boy, not being able comprehend what had just happened or what was to transpire as the morning went on. I knew at that moment that I wanted to start paving my way towards the career that I’m currently in, helping people on the worst days of their lives. Being in Manhattan this time last year whilst visiting many fire houses I saw just how many people this tragedy has affected. From the countless shrines in each house, stories from the firemen, parts of the twisted, burnt apparatuses hung up... Visiting the memorial museum at ground zero was one of the most moving places that I have ever visited, this day touches me greatly, as it should any firefighter. #343 #wewillneverforget #NeverForget #September11 #FDNY #firetruck #firemen #firedepartment #firefighters #brotherhood #ems #kcco #paramedic #rescue #firehouse #firedept #workingfire #feuerwehr #brandweer #pompier #medic #retten #bomberos #feuerwehrmann #IAFF #boxalarm #fireservice# #fullyinvolved #thinredline #343 @ 9/11 World Trade Center Memorial Monumen, See more

20.01.2022 The busy period continues for Gordon’s firefighters in this massive rain bomb. Sadly our firefighters have responded to numerous motor vehicles accidents (MVAs) including a tragic fatal accident this morning on Mona Vale Rd and this lucky escape for a father and two children this evening. Please if you don’t need to be on the roads during this time don’t. If you do need to travel, slow down and drive to the conditions, allow plenty of distance to other cars and get to your de...stination safely. As always thanks to NSW Ambulance NSW Police Force and Fire and Rescue NSW Station 51 Forestville for their invaluable assistance at this morning’s call.

19.01.2022 A message from our friends at Kuring Gai Police Area Command. Wise words.

18.01.2022 Did you know that every pay packet firefighters volunteer to give up a bit of their take home pay to donate towards the maintenance and up keep of our favourite station 002. See 002 station is Westmead children’s hospital which has been nominated as a honorary station and takes the number 2 after headquarters City of Sydney 001. Specifically the salary sacrifice that firefighters make goes directly to the children’s burn unit helping kids that have suffered the terrible consequences of receiving a burn. This donation is entirely optional, no employees are required to donate. Yet every firefighter does. Just another great thing your firefighters do for our community.

18.01.2022 Gordon and Ryde Firefighters are currently on Scene in Kulgoa Rd, Gordon with a truck driver entrapped in a cabin draped in live wires. Energy company is on site and crews are currently working to release the driver. A transformer and pole has also caught alight but has since been extinguished. Please avoid the area if possible.

17.01.2022 A truck fire attended by 37s Gordon’s Crew today. There was nothing rubbish about the guys effort today. They really cleaned up a stinky situation.

13.01.2022 https://www.news.com.au///07c1b031cd8c0c4f48bd3065595bfddc The most interesting aspect of being a firefighter with one of the largest professional brigades in the world is that every day and every job presents a surprising challenge that we can’t anticipate when we rock up for work in the morning. When not attending truck fires, Gordon Firefighters helped our mates at Kuring Gai Police Area Command with a dodgy package. #preparedforanything #HAZMAT Fire and Rescue NSW

11.01.2022 FOLLOW UP ON LUCKY THE LIZARD. It was nearly a year ago that we brought you the uplifting story of lucky the lizard whom sadly drowned in a pool skimmer box but was resuscitated using heart compression by one of Gordon’s off duty firefighters. Lucky regained conciseness and lived to eat more snails from the garden for another day. It was by far our most popular post and received feedback and news stories from every part of the world. If you haven’t seen Lucky’s extraordinary ...rescue here’s a link to the original video. https://www.facebook.com/gordonfirestation/videos/2538910213013375/?vh=e We were fortunate enough to receive an update on lucky. His a little older a little bigger and hopefully a little wiser when playing in the water. Anyway enjoy a video of Lucky chowing into one of his favourite things, raspberries. Luckys happy story also serves as a timely reminder to watch little ones in and around the water. Practice your resuscitation plan and always be aware of hazards (seen and unseen) in and around the water. Also never ever enter flood waters.

08.01.2022 Alongside our numerous strike teams Gordon firefighters have been working their guts out for our local community. Great effort guys.

08.01.2022 We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again. TIP no 1: KEEP LOOKING WHEN COOKING! Today Gordon firefighters were called to a unit fire in a kitchen caused by food igniting on a stove. Upon seeing flames erupting from the oil in the pan the unfortunate resident thought they were doing the right thing and placed the burning pan under the tap in the kitchen sink. ... TIP no 2: NEVER EVER PLACE A PAN ON FIRE UNDER A RUNNING TAP! The result, a huge fire ball that reached the roof and triggered the sprinkler system resulting in a completely flooded unit. This situation can be extremely dangerous. If a pan catches on fire cover it with a lid if safe and remove it from the heat if possible or alternatively cover with a fire blanket. Remove to a safe space like an outdoor balcony when it’s safe to do so. If you are unable to do this call 000 immediately, close doors behind you, turn off the stove if safe and get out and stay out until fire crews arrive. Never re enter a burning building.

07.01.2022 On Wednesday 30th September Gordon Fire Station responded to a rescue at a job site in Lindfield. The patient required extrication via Crowsnest’s Ladder Platform due to limited access. #morethanfire #preparedforanything

05.01.2022 Gordon firefighters have attended a number of devastating house fires this year. Here’s a short video and a link to download a home escape plan so you can get yourself and your family safely out of a fire in the home.

05.01.2022 Today firefighters from Gordon assisted our colleges at Hornsby in a critical incident. Upon hearing a working smoke alarm residents called 000 and our fire crews were quickly responded. Upon gaining entry crews found food stuffs alight which were quickly extinguished. A primary search of the property was carried out and a male was found unresponsive and not breathing by the crews. CPR was commenced and assistance from NSW Ambulance was requested. This is an acute reminder ...how working smoke alarms save lives. Have you checked yours lately? If you’re elderly and can’t quite get up a ladder or don’t have someone who can help we will come around and replace them and check your home fire safety for free. Remember working smoke alarms save lives.

01.01.2022 Today Gordon Firefighters where called to a protracted and laborious Hazmat job after a careless driver dropped a large amount of Asbestos on Forestway at Belrose. After donning protective Equipment the material was contained securely. This is a timely reminder to always secure your load when transporting material. Special thanks to Hazmat station Fire and Rescue NSW Station 51 Forestville for the expert advice and NSW Police Force for their assistance with traffic control.
