This February, families are invited to a unique and inspiring event hosted in partnership with Dyslexia Sparks and Humberside Fire and Rescue Service.This interactive session offers an exciting behind-the-scenes look at a local fire station while showcasing the fantastic career opportunities available within the fire and rescue service.
Participants will be welcomed into the station at 9:30am and shown a range of activities highlighting the different aspects of life as a firefighter.
You'll rotate activities, including:
🚒 Station Tour – Explore the fire station, its facilities, and learn about the supportive culture and teamwork that make it such a rewarding place to work.

🚨 Incident Response – Students will learn how firefighters respond to emergencies and work under pressure.
The session is designed to be fun and confidence-boosting, while also demonstrating how the strengths often linked with dyslexia – such as problem-solving, creativity, teamwork, and resilience, are not just welcomed but valued within the fire service.
