Warwickshire fire stations are recruiting

This could range from fires, floods and road traffic collisions to chemical spillages and community fire safety activities.

Many on-call firefighters will already have full or part-time jobs, but when the call comes, they have to be ready to go.

Working alongside full-time firefighters, the on-call staff are fully trained to save lives and protect their community.

Posts are needed to be filled at Fenny Compton, Wellesbourne and Kenilworth stations, among a number of others in the county.

Only those who are fit and healthy and live or work within a few minutes of the relevant fire station is eligible to apply. On average, on-call firefighters are called out two to three times a week for a few hours each time. They are also be expected to attend weekly drill nights and occasional training courses.
