Public Education, Fire Prevention, and Awareness

In addition to providing emergency response services, Lambton Shores Fire and Emergency Services (LSFES) is dedicated to providing public education and fire prevention services to the community.

We hope the information on this page can serve as a starting point for those looking to learn more about fire prevention and safety. In addition to the information on this page, LSFES leads several public awareness campaigns throughout the year, such as Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week and Fire Prevention Week.

Home Fire Safety

Home fire safety is an incredibly important responsibility throughout the year. Preparing for a potential fire with a home escape plan is a very important first step, but it's also important to know what to do to prevent kitchen, electrical, or heating equipment fires.
