Thank you to all those supporting and attending today's family day organised by the Derby Deaf Children and Nottingham Deaf Children Society hosted at @RoyalSchoolDD

Wonderful Vaisakhi celebration! Thank you to the community for having us and all the colleagues supporting the event and sharing safety messages over the weekend! @DerbyshireFRS

Today we’ve said a huge farewell to Station Manager Julia Smith who retires after almost 23 years. Julia who has been our Station Manager responsible for fire investigation, joined DFRS as a trainee Firefighter in May 2001. Everyone at DFRS wishes Jules well for her retirement

Great to catch up with @SimonHareBBC from @bbcemt this morning with our lovely friends at @RoyalSchoolDD He’s at the school covering a collaboration between the school and @DerbyshireFRS which could be lifesaving for members of the deaf community.

@GavinGtomlins thank you for your support in this. It wouldn’t have happened without it! A sign of commitment from an organisation when support comes from all levels and a reflection of the values of @DerbyshireFRS

Well well well- after learning #BSL with us at @RoyalSchoolDD since September. The first wave of BSL champions have taken their 101 BSL exam today! We wish them all luck! @mickwood 👍🤞

Getting ready for the AFSA Winter conference 2023 #AFSAWC2023 being hosted by @WYFRS at Leeds Armouries 👍🏻

Happy @intl_mens_day to all our supporters, mentors and allies. Thank you for taking a stand to help others but please remember to keep yourselves healthy and looked after #ZeroMaleSuicide. To the men in @DerbyshireFRS who stand up, challenge and support - we salute you!

Today we had our Pass Out Parade for Holly House’s YES! Scheme at Chesterfield.. and they even got to go up in the ALP as a special treat 😊 @mickwood @DerbyshireFRS

Great event and an honour to be involved!

Another example of @DerbyshireFRS commitment to inclusion and service delivery for all of our communities. Enacting the commitment of our @BDA_Deaf charter

On Saturday our Cadets, Grace, Abbi & Bentley went to UKRO 2023 with 2 of our Instructors, Mark and Craig. They competed against other services by doing a trauma care based scenario where they came 3rd! We are so proud of you 👏⛑️🚒 @UKFireCadets @DerbyshireFRS

Investment is our communities begins with the commitment of our staff and this group from across @DerbyshireFRS have stepped up to develop our application of the @BDA_Deaf charter and connection with the Deaf people of Derbyshire

Just one way in which we aim to encourage diversity in @DerbyshireFRS Why not come and join us or look out for one of our awareness days?

A great send off for SM Hudson after 30 years Service with @DerbyshireFRS . Wishing him a long and happy retirement. @Huddo66_ @GavinGtomlins

Could you influence people and build on the great work already done to create an inclusive and diverse organisation whilst bringing people along with you on the journey? A great opportunity for the right person to be at the forefront of EDI in the Fire Service!

A fantastic BSL based community event yesterday at @NottmRoadFS with @DerbyshireFRS interacting with BSL users to share Safety messages using BSL. Great turnout and thanks to all the organisations who helped us make it happen!

Fantastic event tomorrow at Nottingham Road Fire Station @NottmRoadFS ensuring our Deaf community members feel valued and respected by @DerbyshireFRS Safety messages in BSL to ensure understanding
