Welcome to the website of Kerry Civil Defence 
Civil Defence is an organisation comprising almost entirely of volunteers. It's prime role is to give aid and assistance in time of emergencies in support of the professional emergency services. Members attend classes in many disciplines, such as life saving skills, First Aid, Search and Rescue, Fire Fighting, Water Rescue, Radiation Monitoring, Radio Communications, and looking after the welfare of those evacuated during an emergency.
