At the Freixo Detachment, the passion for firefighting passes from parents to children

For 25 years, Patrícia Alves became one of the first female firefighters at the Freixo Detachment, of the Ponte de Lima Volunteer Firefighters. Today, her son Pedro, 13 years old, participates in the School for Juniors and Cadets during the celebrations of the 25th anniversary of the structure, symbolizing the continuity of a family tradition of service. The firefighter joined the corps without having family members connected to the fire department, but found in the detachment a husband and a rewarding experience. Her son Pedro revealed that he wants to be a firefighter in the future, having learned at the little school skills such as basic life support and hose handling. The School for Juniors and Cadets is a project that aims to bring the community closer to the firefighters' cause and instill the spirit of service from an early age.
