Recently a training day was held to show volunteers how to use fire extinguisher should the need ever arise.
Several different types of extinguishers were used and the differences for each type were explained.
Orange safety cones were placed on the ground to represent a fire.
All of our carriage attendants were allowed to discharge an extinguisher at the fire.
Extinguishers with water, foam, powder and CO2 were all demonstrated.
Each person was shown how to pull the pin and how to attack the fire
Choose the right extinguisher for the fire.
It is important to train all staff and volunteers to use the right extinguisher in the event of fire.
