From structure fires to medical emergencies, our trained volunteers are equipped and ready to serve Brentford and the surrounding community around the clock.

The Brentford Volunteer Fire Department is more than an emergency response organization — it is the heartbeat of public safety for our community. Our firefighters are neighbors, farmers, teachers, and tradespeople who answer the call when Brentford needs them most.
Stationed at 301 S Main St, we provide rapid response to fires, medical emergencies, vehicle accidents, and natural disasters across Brentford and the surrounding rural area. Every member volunteers their time, training, and equipment to keep this community safe — day and night, every day of the year.
Whether you're looking to become a volunteer firefighter, support our equipment upgrades, or simply learn how to protect your home — the Brentford Volunteer Fire Department welcomes your involvement.
We regularly host open house events, fire safety demonstrations, and recruitment sessions at our station. No experience is required — we provide all the training you need to serve your community.
