Andy Lee 🚒🚨🔥🩺🌧🌊

We are working with our partners to bring this incident to a safe conclusion. Please avoid the area while we deal with the fire.

We are aware of an incident currently taking place at WCH. There is a fire in the portakabins adjacent to the development site. The fire service are in attendance. The fire is away from the main hospital buildings and there is no risk to patients. ncic.nhs.uk/news/incident-…

Touching tribute to Ryan Johnson from fire service colleagues cwherald.com/news/touching-… Such sad news. This time of the year will lie heavy on Ryan's family in the years to come. We offer our sincerest condolences to Ryan's family, friends and colleagues.

Congratulations to our winners and highly commended nominees in Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service's People Awards 2022. 👏

Today we held the first development day for our On-call Supervisory Managers at @CarlisleEast. A great session providing updates and discussing training, BA and policies.

Emergency services are at the scene of a freight train derailment in Carlisle. No passengers were on the train and there are not believed to be any injuries. It happened in the area of the Petteril Bridge junction, off London Road. People are asked to stay away from this area.

A small fire in the open can rapidly spread and quickly become a large incident. If you spot a fire - even a small one, get yourself to safety and call 999. 🚭 Dispose cigarette ends responsibly. 🔥 Don't BBQ or light fires in rural areas. 🗑️ Take your rubbish home.

Young people in Cumbria can find out what’s involved in being a firefighter this summer! Lots of realistic simulations. They get fed during the day too which could make a big difference to some families at the moment. Hear more with @ValTheVoice shortly. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/li…
