There is a partial loss of 999 for 01524 (Lancaster) landlines. Around 1,400 properties are thought to be affected.

In an emergency, ring 999 using a mobile phone. 📱

Not my video, but passed to me by a former @LondonFire colleague. A house fire in East London a couple of weeks ago caused by an e-scooter lithium battery. The burning batteries 'flaring' causes overpressure which looks like mini-backdraughts!!!

Good use of the Crash Data Recovery on the Appliance iPads by the Sector Safety Officer

Forget the socks and deodorant multi packs, the best thing you can give someone at Christmas is your time! Catch up with a mate, reach out to a family member and get talking! It can make a huge positive difference to their mental health and yours! 👊🏻 🗣 🎅
