A Lovely evening here at Fairlands Lakes. Red watch have been out giving advice to members of the public on water safety and drowning prevention.
Even though the water looks inviting and the sun is out, the water is still very cold and dangerous. #wateraware

Drowning is a leading cause of accidental child death. Give children the skills to enjoy a lifetime of fun in the water with the Royal Life Saving Society UK’s free water safety

This week is our drowning prevention week. We are asking people to #BeWaterAware so they can enjoy time in and around water and reduce the risk of accidental drowning.

This is Fairlands lake in Stevenage. It looks so peaceful and inviting on a hot sunny day. If you find yourself unexpectedly in the water fight the urge to swim and float to live. For more information visit https://t.co/aS94Kc3btX @julieolie #BeWaterAware

Outdoor swimming has become really popular and is great for fitness and mental health.
If you are thinking of taking the plunge then make sure you see our safety advice and better still join a club for support and guidance. https://t.co/TKXiJCqZmF #BeWaterAware #RespectTheWater

Today, we mark the 16th anniversary of the passing of FF Jeff Wornham and FF Michael Miller. Jeff and Michael tragically lost their lives fighting a fire at Harrow Court in Stevenage on 2 February 2005. We honour their memory today, and our thoughts remain with their families.

Both stations have probationers at the same stage of development, so yesterday @HitchinFire1 & @stevenage_fire combined to facilitate a Hazmat scenario to aid their learning. Very worthwhile exercise for all promoting lots of discussion points in the hunt for best practice 🚒

Stay safe out there

This #BonfireNight2020 we're asking people to think twice before lighting bonfires and using fireworks in their gardens. Please respect the emergency services and NHS as they continue to work hard in the fight against #COVID19

[Herts Fire Control @HertsFRSControl]

Our @HFRS Technical Services Team have been busy rebranding our @stevenage_fire appliance with advice on how to keep safe during this pandemic. Everyone can play their part. https://t.co/lZG4UT21mP

[Red Watch Stevenage @stevenage_fire]

Be careful out there. @GC_SNH @HFRS @HertsFRSControl @hertsfirechief @SNHCoordinator @HWH_CFS @SamMetHaward #covidsafe #followguidelines

[National Fire Chiefs Council @NFCC_FireChiefs]

Remember, remember to buy fireworks right. Social media, markets or pubs, are not a safe place for your purchase, so make sure that you visit a shop #FireworkSafety
