Tarentaal Retirement Village held a fire drill this morning to ensure that in the event of an emergency, the necessary safety procedures are in place. “Fire drills at retirement villages are crucial to ensure the safety of residents, especially older individuals who may have limited mobility or require assistance during emergencies,” says village manager Tammy Neilson. She thanked the fire committee for the time and energy they put into fire safety. Pictured are the committee members: Margaret McFadden (fire warden), Karen Fitzwilliam (fire committee chairperson), Charlotte Duncan (fire warden), Conrad Stanley (resident), David Bull (fire warden) and Allan Neilson (fire warden).
