Coronavirus
COVID-19 is still circulating in our community - so it's important we all do our part to keep everyone safe.
If you're unwell, stay home. If you develop COVID like symptoms, get tested.

Brigade activities
Normal brigade activities, including meetings and training, can resume.
If you are unwell, do not attend RFS activities or facilities.

Rapid Antigen Testing kits are available through Districts, with additional supplies being pre-positioned at Area Commands offices. The RFS has ample supplies of these kits.
