Meet the folk that fight the fires! Clamber into the cab* of a fire engine or take a closer look at one of the off-road vehicles Surrey Fire & Rescue Service use locally (subject to availability). Come and meet the crews and see what new technology they’re using to fight and investigate wildfires.
A representative of the Ministry of Defence will also be on hand to answer your questions.
