#ControlBlue would like to say a huge thank you to all the crews who have dropped in to support us today with our Control Bake Off and made donations to our chosen cause @MindCharity. Thank you Kingsway, Ascot Dr & Long Eaton Blue and NFRS Arnold Green Watch for your support.

Happy Friday! Blue Watch Control are on duty today for the last day of Control Bake-off week. It's tray bake day today and there is some amazing bakes on offer! All proceeds received for our bake sale this year are going to @MindCharity.

@DfrsNfrsControl welcomed a visit from Ashfield's High Volume Pump and Tuxford's Hose Laying Unit this morning. Visits like this are a great way to build communication and understanding of roles and resources available throughout the County 🚒

Proud to welcome our newest recruits to @DerbyshireFRS and @nottsfire .. looking forward to seeing you all grow in your new roles 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @DfrsNfrsControl

🚨 We are still receiving a high number of calls and our crews are working tirelessly to help everyone in need. Please only call 999 in an emergency and do not report incidents via social media. If you are experiencing flooding at your property, take the following steps ⬇️

We have currently got a number of fire engines in attendance at a pub fire on Mansfield Road, Sutton-in-Ashfield. This is causing significant traffic disruption in the area - please bear with us whilst we work to get this fire dealt with as soon as possible! ⚠️
