🚒 Shinanomachi Community Disaster Drill Last m

🚒 Shinanomachi Community Disaster Drill

Last month, the 2025 Shinanomachi Community Disaster Drill was held outside of the Keio University Hospital. The disaster drill is conducted annually with the help of firefighters from the Yotsuya Fire Station to bring the community together and make Shinanomachi a more safe and secure place to live.

This year’s drill focused on teaching first responders and local groups how to mobilize in the immediate aftermath of a major earthquake in Tokyo. Activities included exercises scaling ladders and putting out fires for Shinanomachi Campus firefighters, triage simulations for doctors and nurses, and distributing meals for community members.

The event, which saw a total of 280 participants, was a valuable opportunity to brush up on these important skills and restore a sense of appreciation for the human connections that protect a community in times of need.
