It was a treat to talk to the young people of St Lukes SEN school, Redbourn @BTFederation about what we do, and the varied careers in the fire service. A lot of interest in how fast we can drive and how cats can get stuck in trees. #notjustfires#InternationalWomensDay

It was an absolute pleasure to welcome the children and adult helpers of Nursery On The Green to our Station today. A Very busy morning with alot of interest in the pump and a display of good fire safety knowledge already. We were in full recruitment mode for the future!
@Hemel_RedWatch, @Redbournfire, and @StAlbansfire crews attended a multiple vehicle RTC Junc 8-9 of the M1. 17 people received first aid on scene, but no persons were trapped. Crews made scene safe. ๐๐๐๐๐๐
Great to be out with the @Redbournfire crew again at the village's Christmas Market. We were able to show plenty of visitors around the pump and the equipment we use as well as offer fire safety advice. We've had to leave now but the market is still open until 5pm today.
We utilised an off station venue last night for some BA joint training with @Redbournfire. If you have an off station venue that you think we could use to practice our lifesaving skills please get in contact with your local station.

We were called out this bonfire on Saturday and it had to be extinguished, as it was near to crops. Do you need a bonfire during this weather? Embers can drift some distance and start another fire v.quickly in this hot spell, potentially with devastating consequences + Be Safe!
