23.01.2022 Winds like weve experienced this week are not so great for burning, instead wait for a cool and calm day

22.01.2022 This weekend we took an excursion to visit the Department of Fire and Emergency Services WAs communication centre. We were absolutely amazed by the scale of operations that go on there and are grateful for the opportunity to have a look inside the control centre that looks after us when were on the job #comcen

21.01.2022 Rest In Peace Ryan, you might have been from a different brigade but that doesnt make your impact on the firefighting community any less.

21.01.2022 When you think of volunteering is this an image that comes to mind? After working hard on the fireground it's time to loosen the chin strap for a well earned lunch break!

17.01.2022 Yesterday our crews were busy assisting with a rubbish fire. Its always good to see the red and white trucks working together! Lots of things might have changed lately but one thing that hasnt is the emergency services being willing and able to respond when needed Department of Fire and Emergency Services WA

17.01.2022 Unfortunately Wanneroo Fire Support Brigade has made the tough decision to postpone our open night on the 1st of April due to the importance of social distancing. We will still be attending callouts and wish that everyone can stay safe and healthy. We look forward to meeting prospective new members at a later date!

08.01.2022 Infomation about the City of Wanneroos unrestricted burning period can be found below. Please register you burn with the Department of Fire and Emergency Services WA to minimise unnecessary response from our volunteer firefighters

08.01.2022 Yesterday afternoon our 12.2 and incident control vehicle along with other City of Wanneroo appliances were turned out to a bushfire. Control was gained quickly and it was extinguished As we all try to #stayhome as much as possible our frontline volunteers continue to stay dedicated and protect the community

07.01.2022 Head on down to see us at the Wanneroo Show this weekend for a delicious sausage in a bun or hamburger!

06.01.2022 To spread some positivity one of our members asked everyone to share their funniest brigade photo since we cant train face-to-face anymore. Some of them were too good not to share! So we hope everyone can enjoy our collection of feel good photos Though a lot of things are changing, Wanneroo Support is still here ready to respond to the community when they need us (and have a little laugh along the way)

06.01.2022 This week our brigade participated in the metropolitan District Officers exercise. It was a great day of learning ahead of the fire season and were so glad to have many great training opportunities

06.01.2022 Its National Volunteers Week! A time for us reflect back on the huge year weve had This years theme is 'Changing Communities. Changing Lives'. This week is all about the positive impact each volunteer has had on their community #NVW2020

05.01.2022 Today 3 of our firefighters helped facilitate the Youth in Emergency Services or YES program down in Banksia Hill Detention Centre. Volunteering really gives us some unique experiences and we are glad to have programs in place to encourage positive change in our youth.

05.01.2022 Over the last week we have had crews attend pile burns to ensure safe burning practices If you plan on having a burn this cool season make sure to ring the Department of Fire and Emergency Services WA communication centre on 08 9395 9209 to register so our firefighters dont turn out unnecessarily

04.01.2022 RESTRICTED BURNING PERIOD From the 22nd of April 2020 the City of Wanneroo will be in the RESTRICTED burning period until midnight the 31st May. With current circumstances we can all understand that Emergency Services or anyone for that matter should exercise SOCIAL DISTANCING and not come into contact with others unless absolutely necessary.... It is therefore necessary to put in place special SOCIAL DISTANCING measures in relation to the Restricted Burning period and the issuing (or otherwise) of Permits. To limit the exposure/interaction the following conditions have been set out. 1. Permits can only be applied for online by visiting www.wanneroo.wa.gov.au/burnpermit 2.Residents may burn if needed after 6pm so long as the following conditions are followed. 1sqm piles of garden refuse may be burnt without a permit between 6pm and 11pm ALL piles must be FULLY extinguished before midnight. (fully extinguished means no heat, smoke or steam and no white ash present where the fire was situated) and re-checked the next day There MUST be one adult person/s in attendance at all times, with running water able to reach 2 metres past any pile. Ensure smoke is managed and you notify your neighbours. Keeping in mind COVID-19 is a respiratory virus/disease, we dont want to aggravate those who may be sick, asthmatic or vulnerable having to expose themselves and others by going to the hospital/doctors for care. NO burning if the Fire Danger Rating is VERY HIGH or ABOVE 3. Fire Control Officers will be ACTIVELY patrolling the City to ensure burning is not occurring during the day Thank you in advance for your cooperation, take care and look after each other.
