WHERE TO GO...

Post by SmashedXR6T »

Hey guys,
I am bout to make the move to the big smoke, i am currently a Grade 2 Volunteer as well as a vollie FRS.

i'm going to be based around the Forrestfeild area for the interium, but with the lovely rental market of perth maybe there for a while and wondering where is the nearest vollie sub-centre or is there a chance to tag along with the pofessionals on a roster system near by to keep my certification/quals.

Serpintine - Is a great Sub Centre to recommend - However very popular with Volliw AO - all the very best to you - Also if your up that way - MAYBE - Bullsbrook??

Best of Luck either way.
