Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service (WFRS) is excited to announce a series of open days and community events taking place across the county this summer.
With a range of events set to take place, they offer a fantastic opportunity for residents to meet their local firefighters, learn about fire safety, and enjoy a day of fun-filled activities for all ages.
Warwickshire County Council's Portfolio Holder for Fire and Rescue and Community Safety, Councillor Dale Bridgewater said:
"These summer events are a fantastic way for our communities to connect with Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service. They offer a unique opportunity to meet the teams from the Service, learn about fire safety and enjoy a day of fun for the whole family. I encourage everyone to come along, get involved, and find out more about the range of work involved in keeping Warwickshire safe."
