@Bristol999UK @Cameron1374 You could always ask @AFRSControl to send us standby into the city more 👀😇

We've received our appliance upgrade! Once serving the busy city centre at @AFRSTemple to now serving the community of Paulton and surrounding areas in Avon.

@Fruitbat06 @AvonFireRescue @AFRSTemple We still operate to the old Avon Borders. Not to say we cannot be requested into cross border jobs with other services.

@MSNNubNews Ofcourse. Ours isn't on the "official" hunt trail as we didn't register in time just for your information.

Our drill yesterday evening drew to an end the career for FF Kingman in which he completed a whopping 32 years of service at Paulton fire station. The crew wish him all the best for the future and a happy retirement! #TTFN #ThankYou #HappyRetirement #Firefighters #Avon #Avonfire

Our crew was training down Midsomer Norton's Pit Path for our drill night last week. We practiced use of our Safe Working at Height equipment - specifically life lining down a slight gradient to practice our ability to access casualties! 🚒
