Volunteer Service to the Community

Bruce Read

Nominated by Nick Helyer

Bruce Read has been a member of Bendolba Salisbury Rural Fire Brigade since 1991 and, especially since his retirement from school teaching, has been one of the most reliable members. He is currently secretary and community engagement officer for the brigade. He has attended fires at Stroud Hill, Wallaroo, Underbank and Chichester Dam and has acquitted himself well, often driving our veteran Toyota Land-Cruiser, a feat in itself.
