Volunteer firefighting involves activities performed by volunteer firefighters associations, including fire prevention and suppression, and other emergency services during natural and other disasters, such as traffic accidents. In the countryside, firefighters associations play an important role in the social life of the community, and promote neighbourliness. Their members are women and men of all ages.
