Show Notes

Look while you cook. Stand by your pan. Watch what you heat.

If these catchy phrases don’t prompt you to cook safely, today’s chat with Michael Atkins sure will. Returning to the show as Fire Prevention Week is about to begin, Fire Prevention Officer Atkins is primed to tell us about this year’s theme – cooking safety starts with you.

From October 8 to 14, the Welland Fire and Emergency Services (WFES) team is actively educating about the simple but important actions folks can take to keep themselves and those around them safe when cooking. With community visits, educational resources, creative social media messages, and engagement with our Francophone population, WFES is doing all it can to ensure our cooking habits are safe.
