The
CFS grew from the days when farming families organised themselves
into groups to confront bushfires (Wildfires) that ravaged their
land and destroyed their livelihoods. Over the years the volunteer
ethic has been preserved and training, equipment and expertise have
grown. |
|
|
Today, the CFS is made up of more than 17,000
people who volunteer their time to train and serve in a wide variety
of emergencies. These people are based in 430 Brigades around the
State from the foothills of Adelaide to far flung communities in
bush, grass, rural and farm areas. |
|
|
Men and women from diverse backgrounds have joined CFS to learn new
skills and help others. They include farmers, accountants, butchers,
teachers and shop assistants. You may not always see them in their
CFS uniforms, but they're always on call, 24 hours a day, seven days
a week. |
