This Student Fire Safety Week we're asking students to consider their escape routes!📝👨‍🎓🔥

In an emergency, you need to know how to safely and quickly exit the building. Plot escape routes and make sure your flat or housemates know them 🚨

Last week our Epsom and Rushmoor volunteers came together to complete a table top exercise to increase confidence on deployments. Well done all👏

Following the earthquake in Morocco on Friday 8 September, we’ve launched an emergency appeal.

The situation is still developing, but many people have already lost their loved ones, their homes, and their livelihoods. They urgently need our support.

This #SnapshotSaturday is dedicated to the wildfire beast that is the Unimog! 🚒 With off-road driving ability & a 5000l water tank it's the perfect wildfire 'swiss army knife'!
