Summer Events and Open Days

Published 28th Jul 2023

Our open days are fun but there is so much more to them than sitting in a fire engine for a photograph (although we admit, this is the best part!).

Educating people around fire prevention, helping young people make good decisions to keep near water and inspiring the next generation of North Yorkshire’s firefighters are all part of the aim.

So, why not pop along to one of our free events over the summer to find out more about the work we do and the careers we offer?

If any more events are planned, or we have to cancel for any reason, we will update this page and our social media channels – so please check back regularly.
