Two members of London Fire & EMS recently had the opportunity to attend the Black Sheep Fire Conference, joining firefighters from across the country for hands-on training, education, and professional development.

Our members remain committed to sharpening their skills, bringing new knowledge back to the department, and continuing to provide the best possible service to our community.

Today marks 25 years since the attacks of September 11, 2001, a day that forever changed our nation and the fire service.

We remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost that day and honor the first responders who ran toward unimaginable danger while others were trying to escape.

Among those who made the ultimate sacrifice were 343 FDNY firefighters, 23 NYPD officers, and 37 Port Authority Police officers. Their courage, selflessness, and dedication to others continue to represent the very best of public service.

Twenty-five years have passed, but the responsibility to remember remains.

We remember those who went to work and never returned home. We remember the families whose lives were forever changed. We remember the first responders and recovery workers who answered the call that day and in the difficult days and months that followed.

25 years later, we still remember. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

London Fire & EMS would like to recognize The London Cobra Show and Plain City Ace Hardware for their support in helping us place new equipment into service.

Through a generous monetary donation from The London Cobra Show, our department was able to purchase new Milwaukee equipment for our fire apparatus. Plain City Ace Hardware, General Manager Tom Worth, and owners Rich & Kathy Chene worked closely with our personnel to help us select equipment that meets our operational needs while making the most effective use of the donated funds.

The new equipment includes:

(1) Milwaukee M18 Chainsaw
(4) Milwaukee M18 Tower Lights
(2) M18 Six-Port Sequential Chargers
(1) Milwaukee M18 9” Cut-Off Saw
(2) Milwaukee M18 FUEL Reciprocating Saws
(6) Milwaukee M18 XC 6.0Ah Batteries

This equipment will soon be placed on our fire apparatus and provide our firefighters with additional tools to safely and effectively serve our community.

We sincerely thank The London Cobra Show for their generous donation and Tom, Rich, Kathy, and the entire Plain City Ace Hardware team for working with us to make the most of that donation.

Community partnerships like these directly support our mission and help us continue providing the level of service our residents expect and deserve.

Yesterday’s severe weather kept London Fire crews extremely busy. During a single 24-hour shift, London Fire units responded to 46 calls for service throughout the community.

Calls ranged from:

* Downed power lines and wires
* EMS emergencies
* Residential structure fires
* Building collapse
* Other storm-related incidents

Our crews worked throughout the day and night responding to emergencies as the storms moved through the area. We are proud of the dedication and teamwork shown by our personnel during an exceptionally busy shift.

We would also like to thank our fellow public safety agencies, utility crews, public works personnel, and mutual aid partners who worked alongside us to keep the community safe and begin clearing the damage.

As cleanup continues, please remain cautious around downed trees, damaged structures, and especially downed or low-hanging power lines. Always assume a downed wire is energized and stay well away.

Thank you to our community for your patience and cooperation during yesterday’s severe weather.

SEVERE WEATHER – PLEASE USE CAUTION

Severe weather has moved through the City of London, resulting in several trees and power lines down throughout the city.

London Fire and London Police crews are currently out responding to multiple calls for service.

We ask everyone to please use caution while traveling and, if possible, avoid unnecessary travel while crews work to address hazards throughout the city.

Please remember:
• NEVER approach or touch a downed power line. Always assume it is energized.
• Stay away from trees, limbs, fences, vehicles, or other objects that may be in contact with power lines.
• Do not drive around barricades or emergency vehicles.
• Give emergency crews plenty of room to safely operate.
• Report emergencies and immediate hazards by calling 911.

Please remain weather aware and use caution as conditions may continue to change.

Stay safe, London!

In addition to answering emergency calls, our crews have had the opportunity to attend several community events throughout the summer, including Touch-A-Truck at the London Public Library and National Night Out. Events like these give us a chance to step outside of our emergency response role, interact with the families we serve, and build positive relationships throughout our community.

Whether responding to an emergency or spending time with our community, we are proud to serve the City of London 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Thank you to our community for your continued support of London Fire & EMS!

London Fire was proud to take part in this year’s National Night Out!

We had a great evening spending time with our community and enjoyed seeing everyone who stopped by to talk with our crews, or grab a picture! Events like National Night Out give us a great opportunity to connect with the people we’re proud to serve every day.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and said hello, and to everyone who helped make this year’s event a success!

We’re always grateful for the continued support of our community.
