Could you be a firefighter? There are vacancies at both Welshpool and Llanfair stations. 

On-call firefighters from every walk of life and people who are not currently employed are being sought. Full training is provided on an ongoing basis, therefore previous experience is not needed.

An on-call firefighter could be called out 2-3 times a week, for a few hours at a time. The on-call hours are based around people’s availability and other commitments.

To be an on-call firefighter you must:

·         Have a strong desire to support your local community

·         Be enthusiastic about working as part of a team

·         Have a reasonable level of personnel fitness

·         Live or/and work within 10 minutes of your local station.

To find out more about becoming an on-call firefighter get in touch by either:

·         Visiting your local fire station or speak to any of the crew members.

·         Email your query to personnel@mawwfire.gov.uk​

·         Contact North Powys Station Liaison Officers Paul Armes or Matt Pryce at Newtown Fire Station on 01792 70 50 30

Welshpool Fire Station will be holding a station open day along with the annual Charity Duck Race on Easter Monday from 1pm and a charity car wash on Saturday, May 4th - 9.30-1.30pm.

Recruitment information will be available at both these events so go along and have a chat to your local fire crews.
