Five new on-call firefighters will be serving March, Ely and Wisbech after completing training.
The latest batch of on-call recruits passed out on March 13 and will fit serving their community as a firefighter around their work and home life.
Fitness consultant Victoria Larham, 30, will be on-call at March.
Running and fitness enthusiast Jose Perez, 43, is now an on-call firefighter at Ely Fire Station.
Wisbech’s on-call crewing numbers will be boosted with the addition of two new recruits.
Max Coles, a 26-year-old painter, will respond to calls from the town’s on-call station alongside electrician Luke Green, 20, who enjoys motorsports and snowboarding.
Gary Mitchley, group commander and head of on-call at CFRS, said: “Training is tough and these individuals have shown dedication not just to the fire service but to themselves and their communities.”
