💨 Mother Nature is cranking up the fan today!

Strong winds can lead to downed trees, power outages, and hazardous conditions. Make sure your emergency kit is ready, your devices are charged, and remember if the traffic lights are out, treat the intersection as a four-way stop.

If you come across a downed power line, stay well back and call 9-1-1 if there is an immediate danger.
Stay safe, Tillsonburg! 🚒⚡

🎉 Congratulations, Jacob! 🎉

The Tillsonburg Fire Department would like to congratulate our co-op student, Jacob, on successfully completing his placement at the fire hall.

Throughout his time with us, Jacob demonstrated a strong work ethic, enthusiasm, and a willingness to learn. When asked about his favourite part of the experience, he shared that attending training nights, participating in search and rescue evolutions, and catching a hydrant were highlights of his placement.

We are incredibly proud of Jacob and the hard work he put into developing hands-on skills and gaining valuable experience in the fire service. It has been a pleasure having him as part of our team.

As Jacob heads off to fire school this fall, we wish him the very best of luck. We have no doubt that his dedication and passion will lead to great success in his future firefighting career.

Congratulations, Jacob, and thank you for being part of the Tillsonburg Fire Department family! 🚒👏

Last week, members of the Tillsonburg Fire Department Prevention Team had the opportunity to conduct hands-on fire extinguisher training with staff at Tillsonburg District Memorial Hospital.

Fire safety training is an important part of emergency preparedness. While classroom learning provides the knowledge, hands-on experience builds the confidence needed to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a small, controllable fire.

Staff learned about the different types of fire extinguishers, when they should be used, and practiced proper extinguisher operation in a safe training environment.

Thank you to the team at Tillsonburg District Memorial Hospital for their engagement and commitment to maintaining a safe environment for patients, visitors, and staff. Training and preparedness play a vital role in fire safety, and we are proud to support our community through education and prevention.

🚒 June is PTSD Awareness Month 💙

The Tillsonburg Fire Department is proud to recognize June as PTSD Awareness Month.

As firefighters, we witness difficult and traumatic events that can have lasting impacts on mental health. PTSD can affect first responders and anyone who has experienced trauma.

This month, we encourage our community to help break the stigma surrounding mental health by checking in on friends, family members, neighbours, and coworkers. Sometimes a simple conversation can make all the difference.

Together, we can build a stronger, more supportive Tillsonburg where no one feels they have to face their struggles alone.

🌞 Hot weather has finally arrived in our community!

As temperatures rise, the Tillsonburg Fire Department would like to remind everyone to stay safe in the heat. Be sure to drink plenty of water, take breaks in the shade or air conditioning when possible, and avoid strenuous outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day.

Please take a few moments to check in on family members, friends, neighbours, and others who may be more susceptible to heat-related illnesses, including older adults, young children, and those with medical conditions.

A simple phone call, text message, or visit can make a big difference.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and enjoy the sunshine safely! ☀️💧
