The Barcelona Fire Service organises information sessions every year to give recommendations on the prevention of forest fires and looking after the areas around our homes. The next session will be in the district of Les Corts on Wednesday, 15 May.
The session is at the Les Corts district office (Plaça de Comas, 18) at 5 pm, and covers the following:
- Prevention work in woodland areas
- How to protect ourselves against forest fires?
- Neighbourhood emergency plan
- Advice on prevent and what to do if a fire breaks out in the home
The talks are aimed at people living in woodland areas and highlight the importance of collaboration to keep these areas free of fire, the correct use of the surroundings and how to respond if a forest fire breaks out.
Read here what to do if a forest fire breaks out and how to look after the area around your home if you live near woodlands. Remember that if a fire starts, the most important thing is to call 112 and provide as much information as possible.
