25.01.2022 SANTA RUN HEADS UP! Good morning all! This year, more than ever, Santa felt the children living in the areas around Birnam Rural Fire Brigade deserve some Christmas cheer.... So... Santa has asked the Birnam RFB Christmas elves to help him deliver sweets on the afternoon of Sunday 20th December, between the hours of 2pm and about 5pm. We will be visiting the children in the streets all around Tremayne Rd, Collins Creek Rd and William Humphreys Dr. Listen out for our sirens and you'll hear Santa calling 'Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas!' Looking forward to seeing you all then!
