CROWDS headed down to Whitley Wood station on Saturday for the popular community open day.
Fire crews from across the area took part in a range of demonstrations and welcomed community groups to help raise money for charity.
Guests were treated to a variety of simulations, including an extrication drill, with plenty of opportunities to get involved by putting out controlled fires.
