Fire & Rescue NSW Open Day at Parkes Fire Station

Fire
and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) will be throwing its doors open to the public again this
May with important safety advice for adults and fun opportunities for the kids.

Parkes
Fire Station will be open from 10am till 2pm on Saturday 9 May, showcasing our
wonderful fire trucks, modern equipment and highly trained firefighters.

There
will be a range of free activities and fun for all, including firefighting
demonstrations, station tours and safety presentations.

The
public is encouraged to engage our firefighters with questions about home fire
safety, smoke alarms and the risks relating to lithium-ion batteries.

Open
Day is a terrific opportunity for our firefighters to interact with the
community we serve.

Come
along for an exciting day out, get a close up look at our fire trucks, learn how
we operate and ask us about safety advice or even how to join.

We
are happy to provide advice about how to make your home safe from fire and how
to prevent a lithium-ion battery from overheating.

Lithium-ion
batteries aren’t just found in e-bikes, they’re used to power almost everything
portable from an electric toothbrush to a stick vacuum cleaner.

We
can discuss the best safeguards to avoid a kitchen fire or help you create a
home fire escape plan.

 We can even book in a FREE safety visit to
your home and provide advice in person.

Come
along on May 9!
