Brimbank residents can meet the people behind the municipality’s emergency services during an expo at Watergardens Town Centre this weekend.

Agencies including Ambulance Victoria, Australian Federal Police, MFB, St John’s Ambulance, Victoria Police and the SES will be taking part in the expo, which will also feature vehicle displays and children’s activities.

Mayor Lucinda Congreve said the event will give the community a chance to learn about emergency management in Brimbank.

“This is the first time we’ve hosted an Emergency Services Expo in Brimbank,” she said.

“This expo is a great opportunity for the community to get a better understanding of the services these agencies provide and have fun at the same time.”

The expo is on Saturday, April 6, 10am-4pm.
