National Volunteer Week provides an opportunity to acknowledge the commitment of our volunteers who tirelessly dedicate themselves to saving lives and protecting homes, even amidst unprecedented challenges.
You are essential to Western Australia's emergency services across the State. In remote and regional areas, you are often the first to arrive on the scene, offering vital support and assistance to people in their time of need.
Throughout the past year, Western Australia has experienced numerous significant emergency events and you have consistently risen to the challenges, demonstrating resilience and bravery in the face of adversity.
While many of you may see yourselves as ordinary citizens, National Volunteer Week gives us a chance to show our gratitude for your extraordinary contribution to help keep communities safe.
For your dedication, hard work, and commitment, we would like to say simply...
Your Local DFES Team have a special message for you. Watch the video for your region below.
