May 5th-11th is Deaf Awareness Week, one in five people in the UK are deaf or hard of hearing. Did you know that if you are deaf or hard of hearing, special vibrating smoke alarms can be purchased to ensure an early warning for fires in your property!

We recently rescued a horse (Brandy) who'd fallen into Ashby Canal. We used an inflatable rescue path to help him out of the water with the assistance of farm machinery. He's now safe and well. If you find an animal in distress, contact the appropriate animal/rescue organisation.

Today marks 67 years since the Smithfield market fire, a significant moment in modernising firefighters' breathing apparatus (BA). Two firefighters, Jack Fourt-Wells and Richard Stocking, died after their oxygen had run out.
Following the incident, the FBU immediately wrote to the Central Fire Brigades Advisory Council and Home Office, demanding an emergency meeting to examine breathing apparatus crew procedures. The tragedy eventually led to the introduction of a new compressed air BA.

Firefighters have been working round the clock to keep people safe from devastating floods.
59 people were rescued across Leicestershire yesterday - a major incident.
This must be a wake up call for the government. Fire and rescue services need funding for flood response now.
