Welephant Crew

Name: Blaze Bear

Age: 7

Hair colour: Brown

Eye colour: Black

What is your favourite outfit? My blue fire and rescue outfit. It’s comfortable and keeps me safe when I need to attend a fire.

What is your favourite food? I really enjoy eating salmon.

What do you like to do in your spare time? When I’m not driving a fire engine I love to watch films. My favourite is Paddington Bear, I’ve watched it more than 50 times!

What is your favourite fire and rescue fact? A fire engine weighs 16 tonnes which is roughly the same weight as 59 grizzly bears.

Name: Priya

Age: 6

Hair colour: Black

Eye colour: Brown

What is your favourite outfit? I like my firefighter costume as I want to be a firefighter when I’m older.

What is your favourite food? I really love a cheese and tomato pizza, you can’t beat it.

What do you like to do in your spare time? I really like to learn about fire safety, if we can prevent fires we can avoid injuries and save lives.

What is your favourite fire and rescue fact? The fire hose used in our fire engines is 300 metres long when laid out flat. That’s the same length as 6 Olympic swimming pools.

Name: Cybil Squirrel

Age: 4

Hair colour: Grey

Eye colour: Black

What is your favourite outfit? I love to wear my red scarf as it keeps me warm in the cold weather.

What is your favourite food? Nuts, I bury them everywhere so I have enough to eat in the winter. The problem is I sometimes forget where I’ve put them!

What do you like to do in your spare time? I love to spend time in the countryside, especially hanging upside down in a tree.

What is your favourite fire and rescue fact? The tallest ladder used by firefighters can reach a height of 32 metres which is about the same as 7 adult giraffes standing on top of each other. Good thing I like heights!

What do firefighters wear?

Think our firefighters just have one uniform, think again!

Take a look at this video to see all the uniforms our firefighters wear, some may surprise you.
