Drill Nights
Drill nights for Beaconsfield Fire Station’s On-Call firefighters are held on Wednesdays, starting at 7.30pm.
The station is committed to the safety of the Beaconsfield area and carries out Fire and Wellness Visits for those at greatest risk from fire, demonstrations, attendance at local fetes and Key Stage 2 school visits and structured presentations to put across this message.
Its work includes liaising with groups who are known to be more vulnerable to fires and to give advice and fit smoke alarms where appropriate.
The present station opened in 1976. The area it serves lies between the Chiltern Hills to the north and the River Thames, bordering Royal Berkshire, to the south.
