Volunteer Fire Brigades Victoria VFBV

VFBV is the voice of CFA Volunteers.

 

 

It is established under Victorian law, the Country Fire Authority Act, to represent the volunteers on all matters that affect their welfare and efficiency.

 

 

VFBV works with the CFA Board and Management, Governments, Members of Parliament, official inquiries, municipal councils and instrumentalities, business and the public.

 

 

VFBV is made up of CFA volunteers – from individual members of Brigades, through their elected District Councils and State Councillors, to the VFBV Board.  VFBV employs a small staff, most of whose members are also CFA volunteers.

 

 

Through a statewide network of twenty District Councils and elected volunteer representatives, VFBV maintains direct links with grass roots volunteers over their issues, needs and concerns.

 

 

VFBV shares with CFA a commitment to a community based volunteer and integrated fire and emergency service which delivers a safer Victoria.
