South Wales Fire and Rescue Service recruitment drive
The '#YouCan' initiative aims to celebrate the commitment of nearly 600 on-call staff and inspire others to join.
On-call firefighters are trained professionals who respond to emergencies in their local area, often alongside other commitments.
Group Manager Darren Cleaves said: "South Wales Fire and Rescue Service employs 595 on-call firefighters who support their communities across South Wales.
"Being an on-call firefighter enables you to learn new skills which can also be used in day-to-day primary work roles.
"It's a very rewarding part-time job with fantastic career opportunities, as well as the close working alongside our other blue-light partners."
On-call firefighters must live or work near their fire station, committing to a specified number of hours each week.
As well as responding to emergencies, they attend weekly drill nights for ongoing training, educate their local communities, and carry out home safety visits.
