Home Safety Fire Visits aren't just a chance to improve the fire safety of your home.

They're also a chance for us as firefighters to get to know the people of the community that we serve.

Nancy was gracious enough to invite us into her home and share some words of wisdom from her many years of experience in life.

Looking for something to do with the kids these school holidays?
Grab the kids and find your nearest Fire Hydrant!
Get them to tick off the following:

✅️ Is the Lid painted bright yellow?
✅️ Is the Hydrant easily accessible? (No cars parked on top of it or covered in grass?)
✅️ Is there a blue reflector on the road?
✅️ Is there a "H" with an arrow marked on the road?

Bonus points if they can find the "HP" and "HR" stickers on a nearby telegraph pole or fence post and even more if they know what they stand for!

In a fire, every second counts.
So parents, you can play along too by making sure your closest Hydrant isn't covered by grass or your car!
