Broadford Community Fire Station

🚒 Happy New Year from all the crew at Broadford Community Fire Station. This year we also celebrate 40 years since the opening of the station serving the communities of Skye, Lochalsh and South West Ross and beyond🚨

SFRS personnel from Kyle teamed up with RNLI crew members this morning at Kyle pier and pontoons emphasising water safety messages by offering advice and distributing information leaflets to a wide range of water enthusiasts. @KyleRNLI @Kylefirestation @LSO_Highland @fire_scot

It’s been a week now since our Fire Skills course finished. Here’s some highlights 🎥 Again, teaching young people fundamental skills of a firefighter, gaining the SFRS Employability Award & developing communication and team skills. Looking forward to doing again in the future
