Timberlea (BLT) Fall Fair: 🍂🚒
Station 58 volunteers from Halifax Regional Fire & Emergency connected with residents, showcasing our fire truck & equipment and shared fire prevention & life safety information.
A wonderful evening at the Kjipuktuk Wije'winen Gala last night, supporting the Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre. An inspiring celebration of Indigenous culture, resilience, and the strength of community.
Today our volunteer firefighters are hosting a Fire Prevention Open House at Station 16 (Eastern Passage/Cow Bay). Drop by from 10 a.m to 2 p.m. to meet first responders, explore equipment, and learn fire‑safety tips. Please consider bringing a non‑perishable food donation.
Today we welcomed a new cohort of volunteer firefighters to Halifax Regional Fire & Emergency. Their choice to serve reflects the dedication at the heart of our profession. Our communities are safer, stronger & more resilient because of the commitment shown across our entire team
