The Perth East and West Perth Fire Departments are gearing up for Fire Prevention Week from October 3rd-9th.
Over the week fire crews will be stationed throughout the community as they think outside the box to offer teachings about fire prevention to their residents.
In a release Fire Chief Bill Hunter says four radio transmitters will be operating inside fire vehicles. As residents drive up to the trucks they can change the station in their vehicle and hear a profile of the fire truck as well as a safety message.
A crew with each truck can answer questions and assist in directing residents to the next apparatus.
This years theme is Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety.
An online contest will also launch with each truck having a special hashtag to use on social media.
Residents can post photos of the fire departments displays or their fire safety tips with the proper hashtag and be entered to win a prize pack from each station.
