This weekend was an active weekend for our crew at Garelochhead community fire station.

On Friday evening we attended a chimney fire, luckily this was contained and extinguished very quickly and we were back to station within an hour.

Saturday afternoon, road traffic collision was our next call and fortunately nothing serious.

Saturday evening, a small fire in the open that the crew extinguished very quickly and we were on our way again.

Early hours of Sunday morning fire alarm sound, building inspected nothing identified and back on our way.

Being an on call firefighter isn’t just attending fires, as you can see from the weekend we’ve just had the incidents vary and no two jobs are the same. All outcomes from these incidents were positive ones.

Is this something you would be interested in being part of? Would you like to help make a difference and be there when called upon to help others?

If so, we are recruiting! Get in contact with the station or find the job application on myjobscotland.

Drill night this evening was a much more enjoyable one, with the sun splitting the sky it always makes things that bit more enjoyable.

Some happy faces here from the crew and some serious thinking faces too.

You may have even seen our crew driving around the village testing hydrants to ensure the safety of our community remains at the forefront at everything we do.
