Hot tips on how to use a fire extinguisher

Would you know how to tackle a fire in your home or elsewhere? Could you correctly operate a fire extinguisher?

If you are in any doubt, a training session at St Lucius' Church should help.

Fire safety consultant Sam Wilkinson, of Mirfield-based Samson Fire, will demonstrate the various types of fire extinguisher and their correct usage.

He will also show how to use a fire blanket in the event of a kitchen blaze.

​This free session, to which everyone is invited, will be held in the churchyard on Thursday, August 12 at 6.30pm. We look forward to seeing you.
