The role of a retained firefighter offers the chance to serve your local community. Firefighters do a whole range of jobs varying from attending fires to helping at all sorts of incidents, for example, floods, road accidents or chemical spills.
The retained fire service is a group of men and women who do ordinary jobs, but are ready to go to a 'shout' the moment a call comes. They might be builders, shopkeepers, farmers, plumbers, typists, technicians, or looking after the home. They may be 'part-time', but they are trained and capable people in the front line, saving lives and making headlines.
