At one of my station visits yesterday, I joined Highgate on a call-out, which turned out to be a 4-pump house fire. Crews worked diligently to stop any spread into the roof. FF Oli, had his first BA wear since joining the service. 1/3
A relaxing time with families and friends during the festive period, remember our crews that are not, committing to keeping you and yours safe.. if Santa had delivered anything with a Lithium Ion battery please follow the advice from our website wmfs.net/safety/rechargeable…
🚨Nothing to see here, only the awards for runners up in @WestMidsFire comps for Extrication and 1st Place Trauma.. it’s with immense pride seeing the teams across Highgate performing at such a high level. We are all so proud, keep doing your thing. #WeAreWMFS #welldone #team

Recently, firefighters from @WMFSHighgate visited us with one of their fire trucks 👏
The crew were on hand to show children the truck and some of their equipment and handed out important safety information, including how to stay safe around water over the summer holidays.🧑🚒
If you’re in #Birmingham today, come and say ‘Hi’ to us and @WMFSLadywood in Centenary Square as we focus on making our roads safer. Practice your #CPR and get some useful #lifehacks on maintaining your vehicle. #NotJustFires
“Do you still rescue #cats from trees?” Yes, we also rescue #kittens who have put their head into a hamster tunnel, like this 8 week-old in #SellyPark late last night! #NotJustFires

*NEVER* leave cooking unattended. This micro-meal was forgotten which resulted in attendance of 2 🚒’s and 8 firefighters to reports of a flat on fire.
It was a brilliant day we had so much fun, full of laughter, inclusivity, enthusiasm and above all Pride in representing our staff from Irish Roots.. thank you to @brumirish for welcoming us! @JPOC8343 – at Birmingham, England
Wow! That was some St Patrick's Day parade, #Birmingham!
