22.01.2022 Its been a busy week for the team assisting farmer brigades with fires and local police and ambos with a road crash incident yet we still make time to make sure that our gear is squeaky clean and ready for the next job.

18.01.2022 The team had a busy Monday after being called out to a incident near Little Bay, 2 members went on to assist Kalbarri whilsy the rest of the crew were stood down whilst on route. Back to the shed for a training session in the evening where Brent our new AO came up and assisted with prepping members for their Structural fire fighting course which will be held in Geraldton this weekend. One things for sure, It certainly was a challenge getting the leg locked onto the ladder wearing level 2 gear...

15.01.2022 Checking, marking and maintaining the main street hydrants last week, getting in before harvest starts and the main streets busy with trucks carting grain. Always lots to do leading up to Summer. If you've ever wanted to join your local brigade nows the time, come and have a look and see what we get up to at training each Monday afternoon. Todays training will be all about Structural firefighting as we have a few members attending courses this coming weekend. #nvfrs #northamptonwa #hydrantmaintenance #volunteerfirefighter #community #training

Well done to ...the attending fire crew & thanks to our Northampton VFRS & WAPOL mates for backup. We wish the family in the unit a happy time for the rest of their holiday. (In a replacement unit of course). See more
