Gorsaf Dân Llanfair Caereinion Fire Station We are the On-Call Fire & Rescue crew covering Llanfair Caereinion and the surrounding area
Nid yw ein tudalen yn cael ei monitro 24/7.

Mewn argyfwnwg ffoniwch 999
Our page isn't monitored 24/7. In the event of an emergency call 999 We are an entirely "On Call" station. That means every one of the crew has a "day job", either works, lives or both within 6 mins of the station, and are summoned when required by radio pager. Underneath the kit we are factory workers and farmers, council highways staff and welders, fitness instructors

and tree surgeons. But we are all trained and equipped to the same standards as our Wholetime colleagues and respond to the same incidents. We cover a large, mostly rural area from approx 5 miles West of Welshpool to the Gwynedd boundary including Llanerfyl, Llangadfan and Foel (although regularly cross as far as Mallwyd) Also 1st response to the communities of Tregynon, Adfa, Llanwyddellan, Cefn Coch, New Mills and Manafon to the south, and Dolanog, Pont Robert and half of Meifod to the North.

Thanks to Gorsaf Dân ac Achub Tref-y-Clawdd / Knighton Fire and Rescue Station for our nomination. Here's our 19 pressups for PTSD awareness.

Why 19? Because only 19% of PTSD sufferers are diagnosed. 81% live with the condition unknowingly.

A busy 48 hours for the crew. Yesterday we were mobilised at 5 am as relief crew to an ongoing major wildfire at Glascwm Hill, Builth Wells.
On the way home in the evening, we came across an RTC in the middle of .

Today we were mobilised to a fire in the open in which turned out to be an out of control large bonfire mostly comprised of wooden decking. A 2nd appliance from Newtown Fire Station/ Gorsaf dân Y Drenewydd was requested for water.

While we do not wish to speculate on the causes of fires, we would remind everyone that despite the recent heavy showers, things remain tinder dry and it is not automatically safe to now burn the piles you've been itching to the last couple of months.

Been a lot of humbling posts appreciating the Fire Service in recent days. But we would like to take the opportunity to make one of our own for the farming/agricultural contracting community.

Yesterday we attended a fast spreading grass fire near Meifod. Due to ongoing incidents there were very limited additional appliances available to assist and we would have struggled to control the fire without the literal army of tractors and tankers that turned up.

5P1 is now dealing with hot spots at the Rhayader fire and here too there is huge effort from the farming community.

Edit: with apologies to local media outlets who have shared. The 1st picture is from Meifod. The second is from Rhayader.

Roger and his staff and residents at Neuadd Bridge caravan park have been generous to allow us to use their section of the Afon Banwy for Water 1st Responder training for several years. More recently, as the number of WFR stations across MAWW has increased, they have extended this welcome to our colleagues from across Northern Command. We hugely appreciate this and are pleased to see them being recognised by the Service.
