⚠️ If you found someone in trouble in the water, would you know what to do?
Many inland water locations will have public rescue equipment such as a throw line - here's how to use one.

A lakeside fire might seem like a good idea, but it can quickly go wrong. With the warm, dry weather, wildfires are more likely to happen. Avoid open flames in rural areas. If you spot a wildfire, call 999 immediately.

Great to see the high standards of vehicle assembly at the site in Scotland.

Remembering Fleur Lombard today, 27 years after she lost her life fighting an arson fire. She was only 21 and was the first woman firefighter post war to be killed on duty. She was posthumously awarded the Queen’s Gallantry Medal. #NeverForgotten

Our thoughts and sympathies are with the family, friends and colleagues of Firefighter Barry Martin. ❤️
