Peterborough Volunteer Fire Brigade
In the United Kingdom the use of retained firefighters (who are part-time, but are paid when on duty) rather than volunteers is standard. The Peterborough Volunteer Fire Brigade, formed in 1884, is the only one of its kind remaining. Nowadays the Peterborough Volunteer Fire Brigade effectively functions as a retained fire station, except that its members provide their services unpaid. Borth Volunteer Fire Unit, part of Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service, Ceredigion command, operates on a similar basis.
