More than half of accidental fires at home are started by cooking - often when cookers and grills are left unattended. Make sure to stay safe in the kitchen this festive period!! orlo.uk/rxsPZ

We often explain and show the consequences that drink / drug driving can have, yet some people still put their lives and the lives of innocent road users at risk! Drink / Drug driving is not worth dying for!! orlo.uk/sKJty

During a litter pick for the RESOLVE ABS campaign we found a number of vapes . Vapes can be a fire hazard if not disposed of properly, don’t place them in general waste. Recycle them at a Household Waste Recycling Centre, electrical recycling point, or return them to the store .

We bid farewell to our incredible Firefighter Derek Morris (Degsy) , who started in September 1992 he was stationed at Chester 1993 - 2022 then finished his career at Winsford 2022 - 2024. You will be missed by us all!! 🔥 🚒 Happy Retirement.🚒 🔥

Remember, remember the 5th November! Stay safe and enjoy your celebrations.

If you are heading to a bonfire event please think before you park! Would a fire engine be able to get through??

Fires that are started deliberately can take fire engines away from attending urgent incidents which may be life threatening . You can call Crime stoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 to give information on any deliberate fires and help us be more available for our community.
