Join us for Fire Prevention Week!

In a fire, mere seconds can mean the difference between a safe escape and a tragedy. Fire safety education isn’t just for schoolchildren – teens, adults and the elderly all have roles to play. That’s why it’s important for every member of the community to take some time each October during Fire Prevention Week to make sure they understand how to respond safely in case of a fire.

Fire Prevention Week 2021

This year’s FPWcampaign, ‘Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety’, works to educate everyone about the different sounds that smoke and carbon monoxide alarms make. Knowing what to do when an alarm sounds will help to keep your family, home and community safe. When an alarm makes noises – whether it’s a beeping sound or a chirping sound – you must take action.
