Our volunteers
We are proud to have volunteers
Our volunteers bring skills, time and experience to our organisation which can be of great benefit to both Kent Fire and Rescue Service and the public. In return our volunteers enjoy the opportunity to make a difference to people in their local area, develop new skills, meet people from different backgrounds, have their contribution and achievements recognised, and ultimately help save lives.
We have volunteers in a variety of different roles which involve supporting crews and members of the public at operational incidents, helping to run successful events, managing resources, as well as supporting with our ongoing building safety and research work.
Being a volunteer at KFRS can fit into any lifestyle. It’s a great opportunity to love what you do, whilst making invaluable contributions to ensure we deliver a high quality service to all of our customers, in a variety of situations and scenarios.
