About Wilmslow Fire Station

At Wilmslow fire station, as well as our regular training and attending incidents, we are involved with the following: 

Free Home Fire Safety Checks

If you live in Cheshire, you can arrange for a Firefighter or a Community Safety Advocate to visit your home.

During the visit advice will be given on how to make your home safer, what to do in the event of a fire and what to do if you are trapped by a fire.

Free smoke alarms will also be fitted (if needed) with an explanation on how to maintain it correctly.

Arrange a home safety assessment

Carry out your own fire safety check

You can now do your own home safety check (online). It takes 5 minutes to check your home. 5 minutes that could save your families lives.

Road Safety Initiatives

We take part in campaigns to make everyone aware of road safety. We carry out educational sessions for youth groups which can include demonstrations on rescuing casualties from vehicles.  We also attend driver engagement days with the local Police. 

School visits

Firefighters go out to the local primary schools to give fire safety messages to children. These presentations are aimed at year 5 pupils and can include the use of a smoke tent to demonstrate what to do in a smoke filled room and, as part of this visit, we use Kidzone, part of the Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service website.
