DEVON & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service are supporting the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month taking place throughout June in celebration of their culture and unique history.
The month aims to raise awareness, challenge myths, tackle prejudices and offer a balanced debate about their issues.
A service spokesperson said: "Gypsies, Roma and Travellers have worked and travelled throughout Britain for over 500 years and the history month is designed to remember the past, while also looking to the future.
"Devon and Somerset Fire & Rescue Service are attending events throughout the month providing home fire safety information for caravans, trucks and trailers."
