October 4, 2026
 

In our changing world, new technologies call for us to educate ourselves on new fire risks that we may bring into our spaces. This year Fire Prevention week again turns its focus to Battery Charging education. Please take the time - every time - to understand new rechargeable battery operated devices.(i.e. scooters/bikes/tools) and follow the 6 tips to enhance your safety.

That said, we can't forget the fundamentals either. Smoke Detectors/ Fire Extinguishers/Escape Plans.
