Adopt a fire hydrant

In the event of a fire it is essential that firefighters have quick and easy access to water from the nearest fire hydrant.

You can help by:

• Clearing soil grass and shrubs from around the hydrant 
• Keeping vehicles clear of the hydrant 
• Reporting any visible faults, damage or missing markers.
