So we've made peace with the fact we're probably going to lose theAustralian Red Cross Blood Service Emergency Services Challenge this year despite a solid effort by our fireys.
But on the off chance you do want to donate before 31 August, call 13 14 95 to make an appointment. Every donation saves 3 lives!

  • Jay Hall Well done Eddie. I remember you coming into your daughters kindergarten to show us your ppe when I was a little kid. 32 years on and you inspired me to become one. 20 years after joining as a firefighter and I still love it. I also remember running into you on the upper west side of new york at the firefighter memorial on september 11 2011. Always a gentlemen. Enjoy your retirement
