from Firefighter Podcast · host Pete Wakefield

 On 12 July 2009 at 00.38hrs Lothian and Borders Fire and Rescue Service received a call to a fire in a public bar at 178 Dalry Road, Edinburgh. The original seat of the fire was within the basement, in a room used as an office, with fire and smoke spreading upwards towards the flatted properties above. The initial firefighting tactical plan prioritised the rescue of residents from those flats and locating and extinguishing of the fire. During the firefighting operations firefighter Ewan Williamson, while attempting to exit the ground floor, entered a room off the public bar area and became trapped due to the door becoming jammed. Please support the podcast and its future by clicking HERE and joining our Patreon CrewA big thanks to our partners for supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingHAIX FootwearFitness For the Frontline is coaching designed specifically to reflect the physical elements of the role of a Firefighter for those applying for, currently serving in or retired from the fire service.Designed by Firefighters for FirefightersJoin our Facebook group HERETry the program for FREE HERE Support the ongoing work of the podcast by clicking HEREPlease subscribe to the podcast on YoutubeEnter our monthly giveaways on the following platformsFacebookInstagramGet notified of each Podcast episode as soon as they come out by clicking HEREPlease support the podcast and its future by clicking HERE and joining our Patreon CrewSend us Fan MailSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.
