Warwickshire Fire & Rescue Service (WFRS) is excited to announce a series of open days taking place at fire stations over the coming weeks.
Nuneaton Fire Station will be holding an event on Saturday 2 September 10 am – 4 pm, where the public is welcome to attend the fire station and meet the firefighters and other staff.
These events are open to all and are a great opportunity to meet local firefighters, learn more about the fire & rescue service and take part in fun family activities.
The open day, taking place at Nuneaton Fire Station, offers attractions including an animal and reptile experience, mini go-carts, bouncy castle, ice creams, and mini ferris wheel. Members of WFRS will be present with fire engines, alongside representatives and vehicles from the police and ambulance service, who will be at the event to speak about how they work together to keep Warwickshire safe.
Councillor Andy Crump, Portfolio Holder for Warwickshire Fire & Rescue Service, said:
“We’re delighted to once again welcome members of the public to come and spend time at our local fire stations. It’s a great day out for the family, and it gives us the opportunity to make those all-important links with the communities we’re serving. The better we know our communities, the better we can protect them.
It is always great when we have young members of our community attend, so we can teach them important messages about keeping safe at an early age. Who knows? It may inspire them to join the fire service one day in the future.”
