New faces at the Fire Station
February 12, 2026
Fire and Rescue Station 411 at Oberon is always looking for new firefighters and a couple have come on board.
Tara Ellery has joined as a part-time on-call firefighter, building on her experience with the Rural Fire Service. She starts her training at Albion Park in May. Lloyd Lockwood joins after a decade with NSW Ambulance and also starts training in May but a bit further away at Armidale.
On-call firefighters are always in short supply, so if you think you can do the job drop in at the fire station and make some enquiries.
