Did you know that young members play an important role within the #RFS and in their local communities? With many RFS brigades offering junior or cadet membership for those aged from 12 years, just like these members from the Illawarra Cadet Brigade.

The school holidays have arrived! For those Year 12 students who are undertaking their HSC exams in the coming weeks, we wish you all the best. Particularly those students who are also in the RFS - just like our four members from the Peninsula Brigade.

The wet weather we've experienced over the last few years, has lead to an abundance of vegetation growth, including in areas burnt during the 2019/20 fire season. Read more about the vegetation regrowth and fire behaviour of recent bush and grass fires.

We are aware of drones currently being flown near the Meatworks Fire. You must not fly a drone during firefighting operations. Flying drones near fires is a major safety concern and can result in heavy fines or penalties. If you fly your drone, we can’t fly our aircraft.
