Not our usual working environment as we get ready for the @fire_scot Bicentenary celebrations.

[Marysia Waters @MarysiaM]

They said it couldn't be done. 18 months to deliver a new website and intranet. But this amazing team did it. I can't take any credit but I joined in the celebratory drinks. Obviously.

So excited to have our first in-person meeting in almost two years! But still putting our hands up to ask questions. You can take the team out of Teams...🙋‍♀️

[Marysia Waters @MarysiaM]

@SfrsStuartS @PurpleWisdom @fire_scot @Ayrshire_LSO A remarkable and moving story. I hope we all walk away from those sessions determined to make a difference. I know I did. Well done to @Ayrshire_LSO and the whole team!

There's only one reason I'd traipse through to Edinburgh on a school night without even planning a babysitter and that reason is @mavisstaples https://t.co/buovTXPPdB

It's #IWD2022 which is asking us to #BreakTheBias. We all have biases and will all experience bias at some point - but women especially face a range of bias, sometimes without even realising it. So applaud your female friends and colleagues today - and every day! ♀️👏

As a Comms professional I can see the huge benefits of social media but I am also very aware of its limitations and dangers. This is the pledge we make at SFRS to keep our social accounts safe #16DaysOfAction

[Scottish Fire and Rescue Service @fire_scot]

Social media can be a great place to communicate but it can also enable abusers to control & intimidate. Marysia Waters, Head of Corporate Communications explains our role in reducing the negativity on our social media & creating a safer space for everyone. #16DaysOfAction
