Be A Fireman For The Day

 

Description Cost

BFF1 Be a Fireman for the day £140.00

 

Held on selected Saturdays throughout the year at our fire training facility in Surrey, the idea is for participants to have a hands on go at being a Firefighter for the day - after a detailed health and satefy brief, everyone is kitted out in full firefighting uniform and has their photo taken next to a fire engine (presented to them before they go home, framed) and then its onto fire training, with breathing apparatus training first, and into smoke filled rooms they go in search of lost items (dont worry, its a fluid based smoke like disco smoke, and two of our team are in there, not in BA to keep an eye on everyone), after BA, its out driving fire engine on a purpose made course, with two tones sounding and blue lights flashing! A buffet lunch is provided (plus refreshments all day) and then the real action starts - live fire training, firstly with small fires, getting used to handling the equipment and firefighting (not too much given away here as there are a few surprises as real firefighters dont always know what to expect!) and then after a break, its time to experience the hydraulic rescue equipment with cutting cars up etc (again a few surprises included) - then its time to go back to the classroom for a well earned cup of tea - but what happens if the alarm goes? Well it does and the instructors scramble to two fire engines and get them ready to go, the teams panic and put both legs in one boot, but eventually get on the fire engines, thick black smoke in the distance signals a major blaze, on arrival the crew have to put their training into place to tackle this major blaze....... (Its always good not to mention too much as the surprise on the teams faces when they get called to this is great!). At the end of the day with the smell of sweat and smoke everywhere (yuk) everyone is presented with a certificate of completion and a framed photograph of themselves!
