🚨 Status Orange: High Forest Fire Risk 🚨

With the High teperatures over the coming days and increase number of people taking to the great outdoors Kildare Fire Service would like to reminded everybody that they too have a part to play in preventing wildfires.

🟧 A Status Orange high risk warning is now in place until Saturday 27th June.
What this means:

Help to reduce the risks of fire by keeping the following in mind:

🔥 No barbeques or outdoor fires in forests. Use only designated barbecue points where available. Thoroughly soak BBQ embers after use and make sure that they are extinguished completely
🚫 Landowners must follow restrictions on land burning
🚗 Park responsibly – Do not block forest entrances or roads when parking - access may be required by the emergency services or forestry personnel in the event of an emergency.
📞 If you see a fire: Call 112 or 999 immediately, move to a safe location, and follow emergency
🚓Report any illegal and suspicious activity to the Gardai. Note that the burning of growing vegetation on uncultivated land between 1 March and 31 August each year is prohibited by law.
🔥Do not approach fires or attempt to extinguish fires yourself. Wildfires can be extremely dangerous and can rapidly change direction and behavior.

A smoke alarm is vital to wake you in the event of a fire.

An tseachtain seo, chleacht ár mBriogáid i Léim an Bhradáin roinnt Teicnící Scaoilte mar chuid dá gClár Druileála Ráithiúil. Is iad seo na Scileanna Teicniúla a dhéanann comhraiceoirí dóiteáin chun othair a tharrtháil go sábháilte ó fheithiclí a bhíonn i gceist i dTimpistí Tráchta Bóthair.

Tá ár n-oícheanta druileála seachtainiúla ríthábhachtach chun na scileanna, an obair foirne agus an inniúlacht oibríochtúil seo a choinneáil atá riachtanach chun ár bpobail a chosaint. Trí chleachtadh agus forbairt rialta a dhéanamh le chéile, cinntímid go bhfuil gach comhraiceoir dóiteáin ullamh chun freagairt go sábháilte agus go héifeachtach nuair is mó a bhíonn gá leis.

Maith thú, a SO Ciaran Harrington agus a Chriú.

This week our Leixlip Brigade practiced some Extrication Techniques as part of their Quarterly Drill Programme. These are Technical Skills firefighters perform in order to carry out the safe rescue of patients from vehicles involved in Road Traffic Collisions.

Our weekly drill nights are vital in maintaining these skills, teamwork, and operational competence needed to protect our communities. By regularly practising and developing together, we ensure that every firefighter is prepared to respond safely and effectively when needed most.

Well done to SO Ciaran Harrington and the Crew.

Whether you own your home or are living in rented accommodation you do need to have a working smoke alarm.

It gives you early warning in the event of a fire and gives you time to escape.

Test it today.

A fire🔥could start in your home 🏘 at anytime. Check out for faulty wiring, don't overload sockets and never ever smoke in bed.

Always have an escape plan in place in the event of a fire.

Smoke Alarms Save Lives. Make sure to test yours regularly, change the batteries as soon as you hear the chirp and replace the whole unit after ten years.

NO Smoke Alarm - NO Chance.

Test it today.

Ba mhaith le Seirbhís Dóiteáin Chill Dara gach rath a ghuí ar gach mac léinn agus sibh ag tosú ar scrúduithe na hArdteistiméireachta inniu. Thug bhur gcuid oibre crua agus dúthrachta sibh go dtí an pointe seo - anois an t-am agaibh lonrú!

Agus sibh ag féachaint chun cinn, tá súil againn go mbreathnódh cuid agaibh ar ghairmeacha i réimsí ar nós innealtóireachta nó ailtireachta. Lá éigin, d'fhéadfadh na cosáin sin sibh a threorú chuig gairm bheatha fiúntach agus dúshlánach mar Oifigeach Dóiteáin le Seirbhís Dóiteáin d'Údaráis Áitiúil.

Fan dírithe, creid ionat féin, agus tabhair bhur ndícheall. Tá an pobal ar fad taobh thiar daoibh - guím gach rath oraibh i bhur scrúduithe agus ina dhiaidh sin!

🔥 Meabhrúchán Sábháilteachta maidir le BBQ & Dóiteáin Fhiáine 🔥

Agus muid ag druidim le deireadh seachtaine Saoire Bainc an Mheithimh, táimid ag iarraidh ar gach duine taitneamh a bhaint as an dea-aimsir go sábháilte agus go freagrach.

Má tá BBQ agat:
✅ Coinnigh BBQanna i bhfad ó sheideanna, fálta, deiceanna agus féar tirim
✅ Ná húsáid peitreal ná luasairí riamh chun tine a lasadh
✅ Coinnigh leanaí agus peataí ar shiúl ó BBQanna te
✅ Ná fág BBQ gan duine i láthair riamh
✅ Cinntigh go bhfuil BBQanna múchta go hiomlán tar éis úsáide

Is féidir le dálaí aimsire tirime an baol tine fiáine a mhéadú:
🚫 Ná las tine champála ná tine chnámh i gceantair thuaithe
🚫 Ná caith toitíní ar thaobhanna bóthair ná i bhféarach riamh
🚫 Seachain feithiclí a pháirceáil ar fhéar tirim

📞 Tuairiscigh aon chomharthaí tine fiáine láithreach trí ghlaoch ar 999/112 ag iarraidh ar an tseirbhís dóiteáin

Is féidir le gníomhartha beaga teagmhais mhóra a chosc agus cabhrú lenár bpobail, lenár bhfiadhúlra agus leis na seirbhísí éigeandála a chosaint.

Bíodh deireadh seachtaine Saoire Bainc sábháilte agus taitneamhach agaibh ó gach duine ag Seirbhís Dóiteáin Chill Dara.
