Incredible privilege to join the reception and medal presentation to @CommunityRescue for service to the community. The dedication of the volunteers is unparalleled. Day and night every day of the year. Thank you for your personal sacrifice.

It is with great sadness that we learnt of the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth. The Community Rescue Service expresses our deepest sympathy to the Royal Family at this time.

A lovely letter from @ViridianNews informing us of their generous £250 donation to the excellent local @CommunityRescue Service in #portglenone. Many thanks Cheryl!

Belfast Safety Patrol just now stood down for the night and others, like me, just home from a call to North Armagh (now 0345am). A positive outcome so all good!

Districts were out from shortly after 3am to support Darkness into Light events showing solidarity with those impacted by suicide and self-harm. #DarknessIntoLight2022

Another early morning call this time to South Armagh. All was resolved positively so our folks head on to start their day.

Some of our teams make their way back to the RV early this morning following four callouts in the previous 12 hours with the last two coming in at the same time in the early hours. What's this thing they call sleep?

With no sign of any slowing down and the weather worsening we now have the ninth tasking in 24hrs, with three currently ongoing.

Teams currently responding to the eighth tasking in 24hrs. All times, all weathers. Try to keep yourselves safe out there folks.

So back home after the 8th tasking and away again at 7.30 for the 9th and now back home at half past midnight. That's a lot of folks who have been able to make it back to their families thanks to the joint working between CRS, PSNI, NIAS and tonight joined by NIFRS.

Heading out for the 8th tasking since mid-night. What is a weekend anyway?

The first Friday night Safety Patrol in weeks where thankfully there were no incidents reported and the Patrol heading homeward well after 3am for some deserved sleep. Helping keep our communities safe!

Weekend Safety Patrols with interventions on both nights. First callout at 11am, half hour at home and the second hits. An hour break and the third comes in finishing at 4.30am. Fourth callout on Sunday afternoon.
