A lovely trip to Dalkeith Fire Station today! 🚒

Our young people had the opportunity to learn all about fire safety, including how to stay safe in an emergency and the importance of fire prevention. They also got to find out more about what it takes to become a firefighter, learn about the important role firefighters play in keeping our communities safe, and even have a go at using the hose and learning CPR!

We had a fantastic time learning new skills, asking questions and gaining valuable knowledge that our young people can take away with them. A huge thank you to SFRS Midlothian Eastlothian Borders for welcoming us and providing such an informative and enjoyable experience!
