THE Fire Service is looking for additional on-call firefighters to provide cover for both Bromsgrove and Redditch’s fire stations.

On-call firefighters must live or work within five minutes of their local fire station and be 18 or over when they join.

Anyone interested in the role can go along to awareness sessions at Bromsgrove Fire Station, Slideslow Drive, at 6.30pm on Tuesday (November 17), and Redditch’s the following Tuesday (November 24) at 6.30pm.

Station Commander Phil Berry said: “We welcome interest from men and women who can get to the station within five minutes of being called and respond to an emergency. The role is a challenging yet extremely rewarding one, and provides a vital service within the local community.




“It’s also a chance to learn a range of new skills, such as accident prevention and first aid, that can be of real benefit in other areas of your life, whether at home or at work.”
