Never in my 25 years of working in the fire service have I seen this level of support and respect for an out going chief fire officer.
Fire fighters from across the UK and Europe provided a guard of honour for Dany cotton.

The “oncall” fire fighters at this station (leyburn) had turned out to help people who’s homes were flooding.
They too have now had their homes flooded and cars submerged in flood water while they helped others.
Selfless act and one that demonstrates the dedication of our staff

Fun fact. The saying “Off the Run”is from days of old when horse drawn fire pumps were parked on a ramp which was called "The Run" If the horse wasn’t fit or the pump not working then it would be taken off the run. phrase is still used today and means equipment or people are fit.
