Brigade Activities

Glenhaven Brigade's role at structure fires is defensive fire fighting. As we are not a Breathing Apparatus equipped station we are not able to conduct rescue operations inside the buildings, however we can extinguish small fires and prevent other structures from catching alight. We are also able to attend gas leaks, gas fires, and other incidents like this.
