Today, the Fire and Rescue Service will open its doors to islanders for the hottest event in town: an open day showcasing everything from how they get to grips with intense infernos to danger demonstrations.

Activities will include learning about breathing apparatus, drones, on-call firefighters, the British Red Cross and the Inshore Rescue Boats.

One competition-winning member of the public will also enjoy a ride on the service’s Aerial Ladder Platform. At a towering 32 metres above the ground, it will offer a unique bird’s eye view of St Helier.

The flame-tastic event will take place at the Rouge Bouillon Headquarters from 10:30 until 16:30.

It comes little over a week after the team completed their final live training course of the year at Gatwick Airport.

13 firefighters worked in temperatures of over 650 degrees Celsius to repress a blaze without steaming themselves.

So high were the temperatures that some crews had to leave the room on fire after feeling the heat – even with their protective clothing.

“This is good practice, showing the firefighters have recognised their limits,” a post on social media read.
