Patterson River Fire Brigade Patterson River Fire Brigade (PRFB) commenced operations in March 2006 after the amalgamation of the Chelsea & Carrum Fire Brigades.

We are a Volunteer Fire Brigade committed to protecting the community. Patterson River Fire Brigade commenced operations as an integrated Fire Brigade on 27th March 2006 after the amalgamation of Chelsea and Carrum Fire Brigades. We are committed to protecting the community. We do so much more than attending fire calls. We respond to assistance calls for motor vehicle accidents, wildfires, structure fires, chemical spills and more. We also provide valuable education to the local area on fire prevention and safety procedures. We also enjoy many community activities including attending school fete's and other events. We are also known to help Santa fulfil his duties around Christmas time. As you can see we are rather busy and always looking for more Volunteers.

Congrats to Liz, Em, Cam, Mitch, Jon, Eren and Dave who have today taken part in the 2026 Melbourne Firefighter Stair Climb! As we remember the heroes who paid the ultimate price 25 years ago trying to save people on 9/11, this year's climb seems particularly poignant.

Well done everyone!
