Happy, tired and soaked through!

How do you get the whole training crew into one photo? Take two!!

Some of our Port Alfred volunteers joined the Makhanda crew for a live building fire drill last night to keep their skills sharp. As it turns out, that training didn’t go to waste.

At 4am this morning, a building in Makhanda unfortunately caught fire, and our Makhanda crew responded swiftly, remaining on scene until first light.

Well done to both teams! Thank you for your commitment, your teamwork and your willingness to serve our communities, whenever the call comes.

The strong winds our crews battled against while fighting today’s fire — thankfully the blaze has been extinguished, but the wind is still gusting hard across Makhanda tonight.

Conditions like these are exactly why vegetation fires can become dangerous so quickly.

Frontier Fire Assist | Fire Response – 11 May 2026

Just before midday today our Makhanda crew responded to a fast-moving vegetation fire on the outskirts of Makhanda. Extremely windy conditions created dangerous and challenging circumstances, with nearby homes and structures quickly becoming the main priority while crews worked to contain the fire line before conditions worsened further.

Additional Makhanda crew members later joined the operation alongside our Port Alfred crew, with teams working together well into the evening to battle the blaze.

After several hours on scene, the fire was successfully brought under control and extinguished.

Incidents like these are a reminder of just how quickly conditions can change when strong winds are involved, and how important coordinated teamwork and rapid response are in protecting both property and surrounding areas.

We are incredibly grateful to every crew member who responded and assisted under difficult conditions. Thankfully, all crews returned safely with no injuries reported.

Frontier Fire Assist Port Alfred | Search & Rescue

This morning our team responded to a different kind of call — assisting in the search for an individual following a structural fire.

Calls like these are always deeply difficult for our crews. They are moments filled with urgency, uncertainty, and hope for a positive outcome.

Sadly, this was not the outcome anyone had hoped for. The matter was handed over to SAPS.

Our sincere condolences are with the family, loved ones, and all those affected during this heartbreaking time.

International Firefighters’ Day

Today we honour the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment of those who run toward danger when others must run away.

On International Firefighters’ Day, Frontier Fire Assist extends our deepest gratitude to our incredible volunteers — the men and women who stand strong in the face of fire, who answer the call without hesitation, and who show up for their communities in moments of greatest need. Your bravery and selflessness do not go unnoticed. You are the heartbeat of what we do.

To our donors — thank you for believing in our mission. Your support makes it possible for us to equip, train, and stand ready. You are an essential part of every life touched, every fire fought, and every moment of hope restored.

Today, and every day, we honour you all. 🔥

Training for the moments that matter most 🔥

At Frontier Fire Assist, readiness isn’t optional — it’s essential.

Our teams regularly undergo live fire training in full kit, ensuring they are not only physically prepared, but mentally sharp and confident under real pressure. These drills simulate the intensity, unpredictability, and heat of real-life fire scenarios — because when the call comes, there’s no room for hesitation.

From handling high-risk fuel fires to perfecting coordinated response techniques, every training session is about building skill, trust, and resilience.

🔥 Full gear.
🔥 Real flames.
🔥 Real preparation.

We train hard so that when it matters most, we respond with precision, professionalism, and purpose.
