As well as fire fighters we also provide a First Responder service to aid in medical emergencies. You may see us showing up to a scene in blue coveralls.

Tips to assist us in providing our First Responder service:
  • Always pull over if you see lights and/or hear sirens
  • Have a current list of your medicines, medical conditions, and care card available.



* Please note that these online call statistics only cover January 2008 onwards, therefore there may be ommissions for date ranges that are comprised of earlier dates.
