THE sun may not have shone but visitors to Saltburn still had a hot day out last Saturday, courtesy of the town's firefighters.
Hundreds of people went along to an open day at Leven Street fire station to watch firefighters, police and lifeboat and ambulance workers show off their skills.
The part-time station is manned by retained firefighters, who have other jobs but can be called on by Cleveland Fire brigade if they are needed.
Attractions included a chip pan fire display, a model house used to educate youngsters on fire escape routes, a road traffic accident display plus games and a raffle.
Firefighter Ken Wales said: "We organised plenty to educate and entertain the crowds and had a cracker of day."
