Did you know?

Fires in the kitchen are the leading cause of house fires in NSW. The cause is almost always the same. Unattended cooking.

If you have to leave the kitchen, turn the stove off. A hot pan only needs a minute.

Cold dinner beats a house fire.

Last year, nearly half the homes damaged or destroyed by fire in NSW did not have a working smoke alarm! Be smart and take part in Smoke Alarm Action Day, and test your smoke alarm works! A working smoke alarm is your best early warning sign of a fire, giving you and your loved ones the chance to get out, stay out, and call Triple Zero (000).

A smoke alarm that doesn't work is just a plastic disc on the ceiling.
Test yours every month. If it doesn't beep, replace the battery. If it's older than 10 years, replace the alarm.

What an incredible day at the FRNSW Open Day at Armidale 205 Station! 🚒🔥

It was fantastic to see so many families, friends, and community members come through the station to check out the trucks, equipment, and meet our firefighters. The smiles on the kids’ faces, the support from the community, and the great conversations throughout the day made it a huge success.

From demonstrations and station tours to plenty of laughs and learning opportunities, the day showcased exactly what community spirit is all about. A massive thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the event such a memorable one.

We’re proud to serve the Armidale community and loved opening our doors to share what we do. Already looking forward to the next one! 🚨👨‍🚒
