About Us
The BC Retired Firefighters Wellness Society was founded with the aim of providing a platform for retired firefighters to reconnect and have a voice. Many of our members have suffered in silence for far too long, dealing with the effects of a lifetime of exposure to trauma. In retirement, they often face isolation and questions of self-worth. We recognize the sacrifices made during their public service careers and aim to provide support and recognition to those who have given so much.
