The Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service are actively seeking to recruit new on-call firefighters in the Lostwithiel area.

Tony Penrose, Lostwithiel Station manager, said: "Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service's on-call firefighters are ordinary people who live or work within the community and come from all walks of life.

 "The thing they have in common is that they have made the decision to put something back into their community and become a trained firefighter."

As well as receiving a huge amount of training, new recruits also have the opportunity to attend first aid and LGV driving courses.
