Great to see all these lovely people again, this morning for a celebratory breakfast, as another 2 of the team retire, Manjit Sohal and Kev Hardwick. Great people who helped make this such a great team to be part of.

I cannot tell you how well deserved this award is for Lisa B Tina Collett and the team. They are dedicated, caring and do groundbreaking work to keep some of our most vulnerable residents safe. I am so pleased for them all. Northamptonshire Fire & Rescue

These days are never easy for Family, Friends or the service but you did a great job giving Hilmi the send off he deserved. This was Northamptonshire Fire & Rescue at its best and it made me proud to have been part of it. RIP Hilmi.

Like many others I've know Wayne for many years. He was a good man and a dedicated Firefighter and officer. This is a tragedy and a loss to the sector but a greater loss to his family and friends. RIP Wayne.

Am in Geneva at the Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Week Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Weeks in my role as Head of Emergency Response for MapAction. Good to see MapAction referred to as being "front and centre of assessment and analysis" for Emergency Response at the UNDAC and IHP meetings.

As head of emergency response for MapAction it's been great to get a team out to assist the Belize National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO) with the forest fires affecting the country. mapaction.org/mapaction-team…

Great visit to Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue this week looking at how they use the Cobra extinguishing system supplied by coldcut™ cobra Found the service to be positive and innovative. Great to see them investing in Firefighter safety and looking at how Cobra can help tackle future risk

Very proud to be the Head of Emergency Response for MapAction working with partner organisations such as UN Humanitarian and helping our staff and volunteers to respond to humanitarian crisis around the world.

One of the best solutions for Wildfire response is to use the coldcut™ cobra Cobra Ultra High Pressure Lance, longer hose, reduced water use. Now available as a portable Skid unit that can be fitted to an all terrain vehicle. coldcutsystems.com/use-case/deep-… youtu.be/hAYf4jr81Ig?fe…

Whilst I'm sure all these extinguishing systems can do a job, it is worth looking at the coldcut™ cobra Cobra Ultra High Pressure System "Skid Unit." Uses less water and comes with longer hose, Standard Lance and Multi purpose Nozzle coldcutsystems.com/products/cobra…

Sounds like a great event. Since retiring from the Fire Service I'm now involved with 2 organisations that can help with Wildfire Prevention and Response. MapAction who could help with Wildfire Risk mapping (LRF's) and also coldcut™ cobra Cobra extinguishing system.
