🐾🚒 Supporting Guide Dogs at Douglas Community Fire Station

Yesterday the crew from C25 Douglas were delighted to assist Guide Dogs Scotland as part of their vital training programme.

Our firefighters provided access to the station, the appliance, and a range of lighting and equipment so the dogs could safely experience different visual environments. These controlled scenarios help prepare the dogs for the real‑world situations they’ll face when supporting people with sight loss.

The dogs handled it brilliantly — calm, confident, and curious — and it was a privilege for our crew to play a small part in their journey.

A huge thank you to the Guide Dogs team for the incredible work they do every day. We’re proud to support such an important cause within our community.

This will be an ongoing engagement as more new puppies come into Guide Dogs Scotland🐶🚒

🔥 Wildfire warning for Central and Eastern Scotland 🔥

There is a very high risk of wildfire in these areas until Sunday, 26 April.

Wildfires have the potential to destroy property, landscapes and wildlife. All it takes is one spark to spread, causing a large amount of damage.

Remember, there’s no such thing as a 'harmless' fire.

🚒 Share this wildfire warning to help spread the word.
