"The conditions have been horrendous, but it's our job.
"Where we can we're happy to help communities in these conditions. We're made up of volunteers, but all the money we have to keep the service running is given by communities, so we're happy to give something back."
Paul has warned people to stay at home, and off the roads, until the weather conditions improve.
"We've had people asking us if they can go running on the hill tops, but we would really advise against it. Even walking your dogs isn't worth it right now."
