Perfect footage to support the need for a more diverse fleet across UK fire and rescue services. Risk has changed and we need to change with it. Appreciate many services already have invested but collectively we all have more to do #climatechange

Today we took delivery for a trial period the Deep Trekker Inc underwater ROV. We will be putting it through its paces over the coming weeks. The ROV is fitted with sonar and a claw, enabling it to locate and retrieve heavy objects submerged in water. Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service Steve Healey

Great to catch up with Jane Scattergood QN HonMFPH RN today to discuss collaboration and the future transformation of health at a place base. So many opportunities to deliver improved outcomes if we work smarter, together. Thanks Jane and catch up again soon 👍

There needs to be a total ban on open fires, including barbecues of all kinds - at least in the red areas. We have the exceptional fire weather forecast and tinder dry fuels, *risk of ignition is now key*. #WildfireAware #firewiseUK

Tonight we have been assisting crews at a large fire involving a derelict building in Accrington. We were able to identify how effective the water jets were applying water onto the fire. We also identified a burning gas pipe within the building, can you spot it? Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service

Call to assist a crew at Rawtenstall in the early hours of Sunday. Reports of someone in a river, a thermal search of the area was carried out, as well as personnel on the ground. After a thorough search no persons were located. #DroneSAR

We’ve been working with Createc putting several of their Boston Dynamics dogs through Fire & Rescue scenarios at Training Centre. Shame the Delsar sensors are not sticky! Steve Healey @Lancs_FireDCFO Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service National Fire Chiefs Council

If your #robot cannot open doors it’s future in the Fire Service is limited! Createc have been showing us how good Spot is at these simple but vital tasks today. Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service Boston Dynamics Steve Healey @Lancs_FireDCFO

Accepting change can be difficult for us all! Thankyou to Createc for bringing their dogs along to play with ours. Boston Dynamics LFRS Fire Search and Rescue Dogs Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service #robots

More images from our drone at last nights nursery school fire in Preston. Not only can we see any fire spread or hidden danger, we can also monitor the safety of our crews working on the ground. #SafetyFirst #Lancashire Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service

The #UKISAR team have been working tirelessly and a rescue was imminent. Shortly after this image a rescue of two females age 60 and 90 was made. The two females were handed to medics for immediate treatment and the #UKISAR team continued their mission #rescue

Great work UK ISAR , keep on doing what you do best.

This video, taken by our team Doctor, shows the path created by the UK-ISAR team to reach one of the last living casualties to be removed 6 days after the earthquake. Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office UK ISAR London Fire Brigade #Turkey #earthquakeinturkey

Great work Chris & Lancashire contingent - doing us proud.

Assisting crews at a large fire at the Jaguar Land Rover in Preston during the night. The thermal camera on the drone gives incident commanders an indication of fire spread. #Preston #Drones

Really useful training day using Capernwray Diving today for LFRS Drone team training. We've been getting to grips with our brand new Deep Trekker Inc underwater rescue capable ROV. SONAR is a different level compared to normal drone ops but we'll get there Steve Healey Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service

Why we deploy drones - LFRS Drone providing footage to the Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service Stinger crew so they can suppress a fire by piercing a building from outside. #Dronesforgood

Why we deploy drones - LFRS Drone providing 'close air support' for Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service crews entering a building. #Dronesforgood

Drone team currently assisting at a 10 pump fire in a derelict mill in Lancaster. Incident causing a large smoke plume in the area. #DronesForGood

We’ve been integrating Firefighting Robots today & found the robot / drone combination really useful. Big thanks to Angloco and SHARK ROBOTICS for use of their Rhyno at a Major Incident in Lancaster. Great effort by Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service Crews & USAR . @Lancs_FireCFO National Fire Chiefs Council
