Fire Brigade to mark bicentenary of world’s first municipal fire service

This year marks the bicentenary of the world’s first municipal fire and rescue service, formed in Edinburgh in October 1824.

FBU National, Regional and Area Officials along with many FBU members will be joining SFRS at St Giles Cathedral on 23 October to pay tribute to firefighters and the legacy of James Braidwood and we invite all FBU members along to the Three Sisters, 139 Cowgate, Edinburgh from 4-8pm on 23 October for an FBU Bicentenary social.
