Wow! Dropped in on the crew at Kendal this morning - they'd just returned from visiting a family whose house was broken in to and presents stolen a week or so ago. They made the young boys Christmas, along with @Cumbriapolice delivering presents! Outstanding

A few tears shed again last night. Young Kacper brought back to life after being underwater for 20-30 mins. My voice starts to go at the end, I can only imagine what Violetta and Marek, Kacper's parents, have gone though. So proud of all those involved in this remarkable rescue.

No fire should behave like that in 20 minutes. Firefighters will always risk their lives to save others and @manchesterfire have done an amazing job to get this under control so quickly & professionally. But regulations need to change.....and quickly!

Great work, everyone. We have some amazing wildfire kit but, more importantly, superb professional & well trained firefighters who can use it safely to help fight these protracted fires, alongside colleagues from other services.

A brief spell of firefighting on the Darwen Moor before nightfall for the Appleby crew. Back at it tomorrow bright and early with a full day at it.

Yesterday, Blue Watch @CarlisleEast were out delivering food parcels to our most vulnerable. This one going to a family with 5 young children. Nobody should be going hungry in the UK in 2020. So proud of the team. #notjustfires

Today I said goodbye to another amazing officer, retiring after 27 dedicated years service. Unassuming, passionate & the 'go to' person who has done so much to develop our incident command training over many years. You'll be a huge loss, Steve @CumbriaFire @CFRSTraining Good luck

....finished with a visit to the mass vaccination site at Blackburn Cathedral. They’ll still be there now, doing their work to vaccinate as many as possible; great to see all of @LancashireFRS volunteers in action, inc. @Straycat753 @ @1chrisjowett delivering the jabs! 🚒💉

No RTC is easy, this must have been devastating to attend. I know you all and @nwamb_Cumbria will have done everything possible to save our Blue Light brother. Extremely sad day for everyone involved. Thoughts & prayers to family, friends & colleagues #RIP

Our amazing team in Carlisle have just received a lovely message from a mum whose Son was in Carlisle Infirmary when our fire engines arrived to spead some Christmas cheer. Sometimes the small things can make such an impact and such a different. Well done all!

This morning crews from Carlisle East and Carlisle West met all their targets for the year, so decided to visit the Children’s Ward at the Cumberland Infirmary, to show some of the patients around the fire engine, and let them squirt some water.

Delighted to have @HMICFRS in Cumbria this week, albeit virtually. We're being inspected on how well we've responded to the Covid pandemic. Couldn't be prouder of the whole team @CumbriaFire who have all continued to deliver amazing services to our communities #readywillingable

Brilliant, Chris. All pumps to have the demountable rear MDT within the next month or two. Also, about to pilot full digitalisation of 2 pumps with 5G bubbles, additional iPads and mobile keyboards so that we can maximise productive time of our crews whilst out and about 🚒🥳

Well, it has probably been the longest week ever! So proud of the response from staff @CumbriaFire & @NW_Fire_Control to ensure we are still able and ready to respond to all 999 calls. Great team effort which will serve us well over the challenging weeks & months ahead #OneTeam

Said goodbye to another @CumbriaFire stalwart earlier today. GM Justin Robinson - a great character, brilliant inter-personal skills and an all round "good un". His knowledge of fire safety is incredible and he'll be missed by all. Happy "retirement" mate!

Went to visit Red Watch @lancaster_fire today, their 1st shift back since their heroic actions in the early hours of Saturday morning. Worked under such extreme danger to dig away rubble & beams to help free 4 casualties, undoubtedly saving their lives. Needs no more words.

Emotional visit to see some of our on-call crews from Morecambe, @lancaster_fire & @HornbyFire tonight. Listened intently of their efforts to try to save little George from the horrific explosion. Risked their lives in a valiant effort. So proud but such a tragic loss #RIP #😭

Just reviewing the last 24hr activity @LancashireFRS - crews & officers busy responding; house fires, two separate 6 pump (& specials) commercial building fires, water rescue, gas leak - a number of rescues carried out across these incidents - saving lives is what we do #TeamLFRS

1/2 I’m aware in recent weeks two of our staff @LancashireFRS have carried out CPR / used Defibs to save lives. One off duty, one a community safety advisor (also a community first responder who we support to respond whilst at work)….

Wow! Incredible what you stumble across. Memo from a retired Cumbria CFO on challenges facing the retained service 20 years ago. Not much has changed! "A 21st Century Fire Service can no longer continue on conditions of service set in the mid 20th Century"
