The Fire Safety Ambassador Scheme was established in 1997 by the Fire Services Department. It aims to increase the fire safety awareness of organizations, and to reduce fire incidents due to improper handling and installation of fire services establishments. The ambassador trainers were required to attend a two-day intensive training course comprising all aspects on fire safety including procedures to handle fire combustion, visit to fire stations and building inspections.
