Sheffield Operational Support

The Sheffield Brigade was established on 2nd October 1956 and known as the Sheffield Volunteer Rural Fire Committee. In 1975 it became part of the New Zealand Fire Service. They cover a vast area can get calls as far away as Arthurs Pass, approximately 100 kms from the Station. Their Operational Support members do everything, but do not do any BA work or be at the hot end of a hose at a structure fire. Most calls the Brigade respond to are MVAs or medical calls and have approx. 70 to 80 calls per year.
The Brigade is well known in the area for running its fundraiser Mud Plug and Wings and Wheels car and plane show. They also run 4x4 shinny runs to raise funds also.
