General news

NSW has experienced its most dangerous day of bush fire conditions ever.

Congratulations to the six NSW RFS recipients of the Australian Fire Service Medal, announced on Australia Day 2017.

On Saturday 28 January 2017 Bunnings stores nationwide host the Aussie Day Weekend Fundraiser BBQ and raise funds for the NSW RFS.

In December 2016, NSW Police set a challenge for emergency services to 'Stuff Your Chopper'.

Today is White Ribbon Day, recognising that individually and collectively we can play a positive role in preventing domestic violence, particularly against women.

NSW RFS members have been recognised for their work in protecting communities at the Resilient Australia Awards in Sydney.

The name of Deputy Captain Paul Sanderson, member of the North Rothbury Brigade, has been added to the Volunteer Memorial in Sydney today.

The entire collection of the Bush Fire Bulletin, dating back to September 1952, is now online.

The annual Memorial service honouring those volunteers of the Emergency Services that have served the community of New South Wales and those who have died as a result of that service will be held at 11am on Sunday 9 October 2016.

The 2016-17 Bush Fire Danger Period is now in place for more areas across NSW from today (01/09/16).
