Additionally, this type of vehicle plays a vital role in natural disasters such as floods and enhances the brigade’s ability to respond to emergencies more effectively. Beyond responding to these emergencies, the vehicle will support community engagement initiatives, including school education programs, as well as local events such as Anzac Day and Remembrance Day at Woongoolba Bowls Club. The project is a crucial step in building resilience for the northern Gold Coast community and ensuring the volunteer fire-fighters are well equipped for the future.
