This month, we ran two Transportation Incidents courses at Virginia Station, including the first QQI certified Transportation Incidents course delivered in Cavan. Cathaoirleach, Cllr TP O'Reilly dropped by to wish the firefighters well and get to grips with some of the RTC tools!

2024 Fire Safety Advent Calendar! Day 22: D’fhéadfadh go bhfuil sneachta ag titim, ach ná coimeád tú féin te trí sheanbhlaincéad leictreach a úsáid agus ná fág ceann plugáilte isteach thar oíche. (Never leave a old electric blanket plugged in overnight) #FireSafetyIRE #STOPfire
2024 Fire Safety Advent Calendar! Day 21: It may be cold outside, but never dry clothes in front of an open fire or electric heater. A clothes horse is ideal for this weather. Keep them at least 3 feet away from flammable stuff like clothes and curtains. #FireSafetyIRE #STOPfire
