1 of 4 - A short 🧵 - I’ve been at a conference for the last 2 days. Unusually for me no tweets or comment. Thats because I was sat at the front of the AFSA Winter Conference chairing the event, held this year at the Royal Armouries in Leeds in partnership with West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service

Excellent day at the AFSA conference hosted by West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service Superb range of speakers with about 300 attendees...everyone committed to improving culture and inclusion. Lots of learning tackling difficult subjects from inside and outside fire. 👏👏

Thanks to FEU Fire Officers 🇭🇷fire service Stephan Wevers for hosting us at the international fire conference in Zagreb. Great to be able to close the excellent conference with Wayne Brown and welcome delegates to the 2024 event in the UK hosted by National Fire Chiefs Council West Midlands Fire Service 🇬🇧🇪🇺🚒🔥

Rather than business continuity arrangements being looked at on a local or even regional level, it’s now escalated to a national level.

My article in FIRE magazine highlights how our national 999 call redistribution plan improves the control rooms ability to manage multiple calls
