Fire Free Zone Failure

Hello Viewers. Fire Free Fire-Fighter Holman reporting for duty.

 

Regular readers will recall that after support and funding was withdrawn for the planned fire station in Hayle, Hayle was declared a Fire-Free Zone. It seems that as the protesters predicted, fire has failed to observe the fact that it is not allowed in Hayle. Since the scheme was declared in October 2004 the fire appliances from Camborne and other surrounding towns have been called out to deal with the following incidents in Hayle:

Fire Free Fire-Fighter Holman
Road Traffic Accidents 4 Reliant Robin For Hayle Fire Service
Serious House Fires 1
Vehicle Fires 4
'Secondary' Fires 4
'Special' Calls 6
Auto Triggered Alarms 2
Chimney Fires 2
Total Incidents Oct-Dec 2004 23

 

It seems that the plan to do away with the need for a fire station in Hayle by banning fire from the town has come to nothing with the attendance of a fire engine required on more than 20 occasions.

 

Our elected representatives should really be fighting tooth and nail to get rid of this crazy scheme and get Hayle the fire station it deserves, but what are they doing?

 

Cock Robin (above) is so concerned by recent events that he and his helpers are planning to bring Hayle its own alternative fire station... watch this space...
