The #NSWRFS is morning the loss of Gosford Catering Unit member Joanne Gaffey who collapsed while on duty on Thursday. Despite the best efforts of fellow members and hospital staff Joanne suffered a stroke and passed yesterday. Our thoughts are with her family and friends.

A major milestone achieved today with computer aided dispatch (CAD) going live. The Northern Beaches is one of the first Districts to go onto CAD today which will significantly improve the response and coordination to fires and other incidents. #nswrfs #CAD #capable #technology
