Last Friday, we were joined by St. Peter's Primary School choir for some Christmas festivities! The choir sang to Green Watch Farnworth before being shown around our fire appliances on what was a very special afternoon. A big thanks to everyone at @stpetersfarn ❤

Today our colleagues attended a launch event to welcome the #KnifeAngel arriving in Bolton town centre. It aims to highlight the negative impact that violence has on communities and to ignite conversations on how better to settle disputes. More👉 orlo.uk/saw8U
