About Uki Rural Fire Brigade

Uki Rural Fire Brigade Description
The NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS) is recognised worldwide for its effective fire-fighting models and organisation.
The Uki Rural Fire Brigade (RFB) exists within the greater RFS organisation and has an history that predates the State enactment of the RFS (1997). Its long history has involved many locals dedicating their time and service and has historically been well support by the Uki community.
The service welcomes the time and expertise that volunteers can contribute, regardless of member’s previous experience and the time they have available.
The Uki Brigade’s two 4WD Fire trucks (small and medium) reside at the station on Mitchell Street and are manned by our committed members. The Uki area presents urban, rural and wilderness interfaces requiring a need to respond to a diverse range of fire
protection, suppression and other emergencies which the Brigade are trained and equipped to tackle.
Have you thought of supporting your community as a volunteer firefighter? The Uki Brigade needs you! The RFS offers volunteers certified, national accredited and transferable firefighter training, which is complemented by regular Uki RFB training. If you want to learn new skills in an environment where safety is paramount, meet new friends and serve your community the Uki brigade would love to hear from you.
As your local Brigade, we are able to offer free advice on bush fire planning and preparedness.
