Narre Warren North Fire Brigade have been successful in securing over $20,000 in the State Governments Pick My Project initiative to provide realistic training equipment such as lifelike rescue dummies which come in varying sizes and weights.
Having this equipment to train with will equip more efficient and skilled firefighters by better simulating real fires and incidents.
Now the Narre Warren North Fire Brigade will be able to practice everything that could happen in a car accident or house fire with rescue dummies that simulate a real life situation.
