More response driving qualified Firefighters ready to respond to incidents across the county. Well done to FF Caulfield from @Rushmoor02 / @fleet04 and FF Burnet from @Hamblefire55 for your hard work and dedication to the course๐ฆ๐๐จ #drivertraining
Yesterday evening we teamed up with @hamblelifeboat for some training exercises on the river.
These training sessions give us greater understanding of how other agencies work in these situations.
Thank you Hamble Lifeboat and we look forward to working with you again soon. ๐

๐จFIRE CALL๐จ 16:26 we have returned to the ship fire in Southampton. We will be here for the next few hours monitoring the temperature using our thermal imaging camera.
At 1751hrs we mobilised crews from @Hightown56@StMarys54@Hamblefire55 to a high rise in Southampton, luckily this turned out to be a false alarm caused by cooking.
