Bulawayo City Council had to seek a donated compressor for its fire brigade due to slow local procurement rules. The equipment, used to charge breathing apparatus sets, broke down some time ago. Operation Florian, a UK-based firefighter charity, provided the replacement through a donor.

The compressor was shipped alongside a separate consignment for the City of Masvingo and is now ready for collection. Council minutes show approval for two fire brigade officers to retrieve it, with all related costs covered by the city. Operation Florian has a history of donating gear and providing training to the local fire service.

Local Government Minister Daniel Garwe recently praised this partnership after touring the Bulawayo fire station. He noted the value of tapping into international expertise, suggesting Bulawayo could become a national training hub. The city is currently instructing firefighters from multiple local authorities on new equipment.
