Welcome to the Killin, Lochearnhead and Crianlarich Community Team Twitter. We’ll share news/pictures on local matters. This is not for reporting crime.
Please consider this advice. We have already responded to one person who'd fallen in a river today in this area and struggled to get out due to the current. Take care in and around our lochs and rivers.
☀️WATER SAFETY☀️
It's going to be hot today if you or the kids are playing in/around water, be aware of the dangers & stay safe.
Rivers, beaches, pools & quarries all have different dangers.
Check out https://t.co/xw5AHy0F4I for safety advice around water.

One of our officers attended and thankfully the male had been pulled out of the water safely. Please take care in and around rivers/lochs during this weather. Rocks can be slippery, and the water is still cold! Thanks to @KillinFire and @Scotambservice for their assistance.

PC Diamond #LochearnheadPC got an early morning wakeup call from @ScotAirAmb this morning. Thankfully their services weren't required this time. Good to have a catch up with the crew who we've worked with countless times. Next time remember the cakes when you visit! @StirlingPol
Whilst out on patrol yesterday, PC Diamond #LochearnheadPC observed a van that raised suspicions and it was stopped to carry out checks. As a result the driver has been reported to the Procurator Fiscal for acting as a metal dealer without a licence. @StirlingPol #ruralpolicing

Thanks to @killinmrt87 for their assistance last night and into the early hours this morning. A male required evacuation from an isolated location in Glen Lochay near #Killin due to medical issues. We hope you're on the mend. @StirlingPol @ForthValPolice#ruralpolicing
PC Diamond #LochearnheadPC was out on patrol today. He stopped to enjoy the spectacular views of our patch. The roads and lochs are busy already so if you're visiting us or passing through the area this weekend take it steady and enjoy the views as much as we do. @StirlingPol
@NithsdalePolice@NithsdalePolice your fields look nice, and @PCGav your beach looks good. We'll take them both and raise you some hills to top them both! ⛰️🏞️
Warm weather is predicted for the coming days, but sea temperatures are still between 10-14C - low enough to cause cold water shock. If you get into trouble in cold water, fight the instinct to panic and float on your back until you get your breathing under control #FloatToLive.
❗ A warning for "very high" risk of wildfire has been issued across many parts of Scotland for Friday (left) and Saturday ❗
