🚒🙏🏼A huge thank you to everyone who came down to our Blue Light Open Day on Sunday!
We had a fantastic day welcoming so many of you through the doors. We hope you enjoyed looking around the station, meeting the crews and getting a closer look at some of the vehicles and equipment used by our emergency services and partner agencies.
A special thank you to everyone who gave up their time to join us on the day and put on displays and stalls:

Thanks also to Super8 Pizza and boots cafe for keeping everyone fed and watered throughout the day with some brilliant food and coffee!
Finally, we are incredibly lucky to live in an area with so many fantastic local independent businesses. We were blown away by the generosity of those who donated prizes to our raffle in support of The Firefighters Charity
