Don’t be alarmed if you hear sirens wailing down your street from 3.30pm on Sunday 12 December.
Emergency services will be out in force, not to attend an accident or put out a fire, but to distribute hundreds of lollies to local children as part of the Emergency Services Christmas Lolly Run.
Children in the Broome township will have the opportunity to see emergency vehicles up close as representatives from the Broome Regional Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade and the Broome Volunteer Fire Service, State Emergency Service and St John Ambulance spread Christmas cheer throughout the suburbs.
This is the third year Christine Williams has coordinated the lolly run in Broome.
"Emergency Services volunteers will be decorating their vehicles and Santa will be on hand to help distribute the lollies," said Christine.
"The lolly run is a chance for the community to get to know their emergency volunteers in a relaxed, festive atmosphere rather than in an emergency situation," she said. "Listen out for the sirens and ensure your children safely wait on the verge," said Christine.
