🚨 SMOKE DETECTOR CANVASS – WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21ST 🚨

The Norristown Fire Department, alongside Councilwoman Natalie Colson, will be visiting homes on Wednesday evening, October 21st, to help ensure residents have working smoke detectors in their homes.
Streets included in this canvass:

* 800 & 900 blocks of Thomas Street
* 500 block of Thomas Circle
* 800 block of High Street
* 500, 600 & 700 blocks of East Elm Street

Our goal is simple: make sure every home has working smoke detectors to help keep our community safe! Smoke detectors provide an early warning in the event of a fire and can save lives.

If you live in one of these areas, please come to the door and say hello to our firefighters and Councilwoman Colson!

Working smoke detectors save lives!
