This Summer at Debenham Fire Station 🚒☀️
What a busy summer we’ve been having so far….
We’ve welcomed our local Cubs to visit us, taken the appliance along to meet our local Brownies group, and enjoyed a fantastic afternoon at the Summer Sizzler. We’ve also been keeping our skills up to date with breathing apparatus training, carried out in an old local supermarket — a great opportunity to train in a realistic environment.
And, of course, there have been plenty of sleepless nights thanks to those all-important shouts! Including the Dunwich fire which we attended 3 times.
During this on-going incident two of our firefighters Nick and Arthur offered their time to help out on the Command Support Vehicle at Dunwich which is a important role ensuring radio communication, tasks and location of crew members was up to date and running smoothly 🚨.
We’re also incredibly proud of our Firefighter Ali, who was deployed to Wales last week as part of a National Deployment to support crews tackling the wildfires. 🔥🚒
It was a fantastic opportunity for Ali to work alongside crews from different areas, use different equipment and learn new skills, while helping communities affected by the fires.
And finally, the summer isn’t over, the ground is still very dry and fires can spread rapidly. Please help us protect our community by following the guidance and advice issued by the fire service and government at this time.
Stay safe, stay vigilant and please think twice before doing anything that could start a fire. ❤️🚒
