'Authority votes to hold consultation on fire station closures.' Very disappointing but not unexpected. salisburyandavon.co.uk/authority-vote…

'EU official announces 300-strong firefighting force to battle wildfires across Europe.' Yet in the UK Dorset and Wiltshire are looking to sack 71 firefighters and close for ever, eight fire stations. The Government should sort out this madness. ekathimerini.com/news/environme…

Forty years ago today, I joined an organisation that has shaped my life. Despite the challenges, I still love what I do — supporting firefighters to work safely and effectively gives me real purpose. Visiting Ground Zero today was a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

Representing the @FRSA today at Inclusive Fire Service Group LGA Smith Square Westminster — the alternative voice of firefighters, championing choice, flexibility & fairness in the fire service. #FRSA #Firefighters #FireAndRescue #AlternativeUnion

“It was a great privilege to represent the FRSA today. The College of Fire & Rescue is laying strong foundations for the future, and it was fascinating to gain insight into the complexity of the journey ahead.”

It was a privilege last week to recognise the efforts that one of our Fire Co- Response teams played in the successful survival to discharge following a pre hospital cardiac arrest!🚑🚒(A special thanks to Martin who has recently retired but played a vital role at this incident)

Shocking news - ending co-responder schemes in the south west. The ambulance trust will save pennies in relation to its huge budget. What will be lost are the huge benefits of emergency service cooperation. Silo thinking at its worst. falmouthpacket.co.uk/news/25221436.…
