Clyde Operational Support

Based between two larger Centres, Clyde Fire Brigade has a couple of higher risk facilities to protect - Dunstan Hospital and the Clyde Hydro Dam. The Brigade attends an average of 50 calls per year which can be a mixed bag of medical, MVA pump response, and obviously fire. The inclusion of multiple cycle trails is an additional risk and has produced some call outs to date. The Operational Support members have a support vehicle kitted out with numerous tools to perform their duties. Apart from normal support on scene, they predominantly work on scene protection.
