E-bikes and e-scooters are London’s fastest-growing fire trend.

This week, @BBCLondonNews joined us for a look inside a #Kingston flat recently destroyed by an e-bike fire.

@LFBKingston @LondonFire @RBKingston Amazing work work! Well done to all of those involved

If you’re heading to the coast, remember to #FloatToLive if you get into trouble in the water. In an emergency, call 999 or 112 and ask for the #Coastguard.

Remember it, share it and you could be a lifesaver this #PreparednessMonth. 👇

It's another warm day but autumn is just around the corner 🧣🎃☕

If you've got logs stored near your log burner, it's time to move them away before you light it. Radiated heat can cause them to burn #CFSW2023 @hetas_uk

[London Fire Brigade @LondonFire]

It's #999Day!

The services the Brigade provides are possible because of the hard work of our people.

Whether they're firefighters, control officers, staff in our enabling services, or volunteers, as a team they collectively work together to keep Londoners and London safe.

[London Fire Brigade @LondonFire]

Alongside the family of 14-year-old Brian Sasu who sadly drowned last year, we’re calling on parents and councils to help prevent drownings this summer.

Catch us on @BBCLondonNews and @itvlondon tonight to find out more #WorldDrowningPreventionDay https://t.co/eWgGxuDbqc

[Ed Accura @ed_accura]

Today we observer World Drowning Prevention Day which is marked each year on July 25, with the aim of increasing awareness about the devastating and enduring effects of drowning on families and communities.

Drowning disproportionately affects people of African Caribbean and Asian heritage.
As producer of the Blacks Can’t Swim film documentaries, cofounder of the Black Swimming Association, and some one only recently learning to swim, this is very important to me, and together we are addressing the issue through consultancy, research, advocacy education and support.
Together let’s change the narrative 👍🏾

This is the throwline board that @londonfire worked with @LBRUT to install in memory of Brian Sasu, age 14, who tragically drowned in July 2022 #WorldDrowningPreventionDay #RTW

[London Fire Brigade @LondonFire]

We’ve seen a number of throwline boards installed by order of the coroner after someone has drowned. We want to see this happen before a life is lost, so we’ve written to local authorities asking them to ensure they have water safety measures in place to prevent another tragedy

[London Fire Brigade @LondonFire]

We'll be at #Teddington Lock between 12pm- 4pm today showing people how to use throwlines.

Come along with your family - it might just save a life one day @LBRUT #WorldDrowningPreventionDay

[Emma Fraser @emmadf23]

@Londonfire have been working with Brian's family and as part of #WorldDrowningPreventionDay we are calling for councils to help prevent drownings by ensuring their bodies of water have adequate public rescue equipment as well as promoting key water safety messaging #RTW #NWSF
