January

I just wanted to pass on my own thanks and the appreciation mentioned below to your crews at Peak Lane for their actions and support at the tragic incident at Tetney Lock a couple of days ago. Clearly this incident had its challenges, so it was great that our crews were able to work so well together and manage this incident in the best way possible. Please could you pass on my thanks to all your staff involved and thank you for the continued operational partnerships that work so well on our bordering areas.

I attended the full time firefighter recruitment day on the 5 January at Clough Road fire station. I just wanted to take this opportunity to say what a fantastic day this was. The event was very well organised and structured. It gave potential candidates the perfect insight into the daily life of firefighters and what would be expected of them. The staff where very professional and approachable and where more than happy to answer any questions we had. Thank you all at Humberside Fire Service for a fantastic day.

We wanted to express our gratitude for your hard work putting out the fire at our recycling facility. We know you had better plans for the holiday period. This hamper is a small way to show appreciation of your massive efforts. Sending love and thanks from the team. Bespoke Recycling Solutions.

Dear Sir/Madam I am writing to thank our local Hornsea retained fire fighters for there expertise and efficiency in extinguishing a fire at our house yesterday evening. We had the unfortunate need to call after our bin set the garden shed alight. The team were wonderful from the minute they arrived and very helpful in giving me the necessary information for our insurers. Please would you pass on our thanks and appreciation. Kindest regards Sarah & Keith

February

Just wanted to pass a huge thank you for coming to our meetings on Tuesday. A number of the Brownie parents have messaged to say thank you and the girls really enjoyed the session, especially the Egg. Thank you for coming once again and hope to see you soon, and I am still looking for any job as I think I would really enjoy your job.

Please pass on my thanks to all who attended the youth service last Sunday. It was so good to see your cadets there looking very smart and proud. May your unit go from strength to strength and I look forward to seeing you all at future events.

Thank you to Humberside Fire brigade for their fast response when our home carbon monoxide detector was alarming in the night. My son is 6 and today he discussed with his teachers and class mates the importance of having a carbon monoxide monitor and checking it. Some of his mates have messaged to say they went home and told their parents to check theirs to make them safe. I was super proud of my son doing this.

My dad would have been overwhelmed by the honour paid to him by the service, as we arrived at the church to see you all gathered along with the Pump made us as a family incredibly proud that our dad was so highly thought of and respected. I was incredibly emotional as I passed you all in the line but wished to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful tribute you paid to our dad, it was a great honour you paid to Dad and our family thank you once more.

Thank you to Firefighter Joseph McMullan and Ricky Page from Blue Watch Scunthorpe for showing all the Air Cadets from 300 Isle of Axholme Squadron Air Cadets around the Fire Engine during their visit to the station on 20 February.

My year 5 daughter attends Carr Lane Primary in Willerby and she has been significantly praising the recent visit that you (Ry) carried out there, remembering you by your first name which isn’t always something remembered. You have certainly left a strong impression on her from your input, which is testament to the passion, dedication and skill you have no doubt delivered with. My daughter doesn’t always come how and express how engaged they have been, credit to you, I am being re-educated in detection and escape plans! A thank you and some really positive feedback that I wanted to share.

March

I was recently doing a running race with my border collie. I've ran thousands of miles with him and never had any problems, but when we stopped to get some water and food he had a seizure. A runner called Mick was there and immediately came over and took control of the situation and did first aid and managed to help my dog recover. He stayed with me and my dog until someone came to collect us so I could get to a vet but I never really got chance to thank him. All he said was he was a fire fighter from Hull, so I'm assuming he works for you. If he works for you and it's possible please could you pass on my contact details so I can thank him.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for today to the amazing firefighters that came and got our two little boys out of our car. They were accidentally locked in and were extremely upset. The firemen worked quickly and cautiously to get them out all whilst keeping us calm. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Such brilliant caring people!!!

Thank you to crews their speed and efforts in responding to the incident and for their sheer professionalism in dealing with them, she states that she will forever be in their debt, thank you. Her 3 year old son witnessed this and now considers the FF’s his superheroes, he wasn’t at the property when I visited but I have spoken to mum about him possibly visiting the station at a later date to offer some further reassurance to him, his grandfather was a serving firefighter at Peaks Lane so this has cemented his love for the job his grandfather did.

Just wanted to send a huge thank you for taking part in our STEM Conference yesterday. All the workshops were so well received and we’re so eternally grateful for you giving up your time to inspire the next generation of STEM professionals!

Mr John passes on his sincere thanks to the two members of the Hull F.I.R.S.T service who came out at the weekend to help his wife. He said Jody and Howard were absolutely brilliant and he couldn’t praise them enough. This is the second time he’s had the team out and he said it’s a service that they couldn’t be without.

My family and I would like to thank everyone who attended my dad’s funeral yesterday. I was lost for words when the funeral procession pulled in and saw so many people. It meant so much to all the family to see so many of dad’s ex colleagues and friends there. Thank you also for all your generosity in the donations given for Dove House hospice. My mum and I delivered the money to them this morning and I’m very proud to say we were able to give them over £1,000 which will hopefully go towards helping other families. - Thomas

Just a quick email to say thank you to your crew, they looked after our crew and taught them a lot and I greatly appreciate it. - Peaks Lane Blue

To Peaks Lane White Watch, Thank you so much for visiting Control and delivering Marine Response input to Red Watch, the presentation delivered by WM Tees was really informative, the watch appreciated WM Tee’s expertise and experience provided from his FRMR role within the Service. Thanks Again, from Red Watch Control.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank Liz and Mark for attending this week’s STEM in Careers Event at Tranby. The students and I really appreciate them taking the time out of their busy work schedule to come to our school to share information about what you do, how it links to what they are learning in school and inspire our students with STEM activities.

I just want to express my appreciation for your help on Tuesday. As I’m sure Rich would have mentioned, I was off sick and very much worried about the event and letting you and those attending down, I’m told it went really well. I really appreciate it, thank you. - Humberside Police


Thank you very much for taking the time to bring the Command unit to visit Control Red Watch. The input given around the capabilities of the newly refurbished Command Unit was really well received by the watch, it was great to see in person the work carried out by yourselves when mobilised to an incident.

April

The Drewery's who would like to pass on their sincere thanks to the crew that attended an RTC they were involved in and had to be cut out of.

Thank you to Ry and Dan were that came to deliver the presentation at Frederick Holmes - they made lots of adaptions to both their input and their delivery to meet the needs of our pupils.

Thank you to the Service for the quick response on cutting her elderly mums ring off, she said from talking to Reception to then the control staff and then the crew turning up everything was so fast and professional, she said the crew were amazing with my mum who has dementia and really put her at ease.

Barbara would like to pass on her thanks to Immingham Station after they fitted a smoke alarm – she said they were absolutely fantastic!

I would just like to say a big thank you to the fire crews from Scunthorpe and Brigg who saved my home (and my sanity) when my sprinter van caught fire and spread to my house. I've never experienced a fire before and the speed and ferocity it took hold of my vehicle is something I will never forget. Their professionalism tackling the blaze and the compassion following it were unbelievable. This was my dog van and I had managed to rescue my beloved doggos and get us all to safety at the back of my house and watch the flames in a state of shock and terror. The fire crews were amazing with my dogs when they were able to clear a path to where we were sheltering. They showed such kindness and concern and made a dreadful morning less horrible. We can't thank you all enough. Much love Mel and the doggos - Zephyr, Spook, Hex, Robin, Kite, Wren, Cassidy, Wyatt and Sundance.

Hello, I would like to pass on my thanks to two firefighters Angela and Ry for their help on 29/04/24. Both had called in to the Shores Centre in Withernsea for lunch and while there they noticed us calling an ambulance for the CEO who we thought had had a stroke. They both came over and asked if they could help at all and spoke to the CEO in a very calm and reassuring manner. At this point we had been waiting approx 1 hour for the ambulance to arrive, Angela spoke with the operator and was informed it would be another 1.5 hours! to which Angela and Ry said it was too long and we needed to get her to hospital. They helped us to get Jayne (CEO) in to a car comfortably all the time giving reassurance in a friendly relaxed way so as not to cause alarm to Jayne and staff members who promptly took her to hospital. Fortunately, it wasn't a stroke and has been confirmed as a neurological disorder that mimics a stroke. I would be very grateful if these superb firefighters are given a huge thank you on behalf of the Shores Team and praise from the fire chief too, what a credit they are to you. Kind regards, Lyn Healing, Chair to the Trustees of Shores.

May

Thank you to the Crew from Barton who got soaked attending the walk with 3 dads walking.

On behalf of everyone I would just like to thank you both for the Road Safety day you did for us today. I have had a lot of feedback from the men who all enjoyed it and found it very interesting. Certainly an eye opener for a lot of us. Thank you once again. Network Rail

Please can you pass on a massive thank you to your Red Watch team Peaks Lane who came to visit us in school yesterday. They were fantastic with the children and really showed the children what a great and inspiring job firefighters do. We loved seeing the excitement on the children's faces and they learnt so much from the visit that we will use in our future learning. Thank you again for your support in helping to set this up and a massive thank you again to Red Watch.

I wanted to pass on my sincere thanks to Will for arranging the visit that was held on 25 April. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed it and still speak about it. They have learnt a great deal and we would be really interested in building the visit into our pathway curriculum. As you were aware the visit was to engage and educate our most vulnerable children, all of which have significantly complex special needs which means road safety and fire safety is a real risk. All the children engaged well and were able to recall key safety information. I think the highlight of the day was certainly using the hose! So again I would like to offer my thanks to Will and all the firefighters at Clough Road White Watch and to Mark who led the road safety talk.

My wife and I took our grandson to Homestead Lake today to feed the ducks. I'm not sure which Watch it was but the were training in the water and invited our grandson over and let him throw a lifeline out and pull one of the team to the shore. He was so excited to be involved. He is only three and as you can imagine is mad on fire engines etc. a massive thank you for engaging with us. Brilliant work. Cheers guys.

We would like to thank Sue for the talk, last night, at Tickton WI. Members enjoyed the evening and found the whole event interesting and informative.

Thank you so much to Martin for speaking at the GP PTL on Thursday last week. We were all really grateful for your input and really demonstrated our commitment both to safeguarding and multi-disciplinary working as a safeguarding partnership.

Sarah and Dan from Prevention came to talk to our residents on the 29 May, about Fire Safety and things they could do, to keep themselves say at home. They were very helpful, and left Leaflets for the residents to read. They very kindly had their pictures took with the residents as well.

June

To Ry and Blue Watch: I just wanted to say a big thank you again for coming to visit us this afternoon. It was such a valuable learning experience for the children! The crew were brilliantly organised and the opportunity for the children to split into smaller groups to experience different parts of the truck was extremely useful - Priory Primary School.

To fire cadets: I wouldn't have thought to make the donation unless it was for the efforts of Mary Jennings and the fire cadets at the10k who were absolutely superb!! The very best of the young generation!

To White Watch Scunthorpe: Thank you so much, they were absolutely fantastic and very helpful.

Cleethorpes Scout Group would just like to say a great big thank you to RED WATCH for attending our fun day on Sunday 9 June. All our young people were really excited to see them and to have a look around the appliance.

To Road Safety Team, Winifred Holtby would like to express on behalf of the staff and pupils what a fantastic day they've all had! Every single pupil really engaged with the day, which can only be credited to the engaging sessions provided by your team.

To Sue: I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the amazing Sue coming to the cadets in North Lincs last night to assist in our project supporting the great share the roads campaign. This allowed us to capture some great pictures for social media , allow the Cadets to tell Sue what research work they had been doing around the campaign. As always Sue was truly amazing with the group , engaging with them to promote road safety , telling great stories associated with safety and being approachable to all. Whenever Sue comes to the group it has been so very positive ,enthusiastic and just an all-round lovely person. Please pass on mine and the whole cadet groups thanks for her coming at very short notice. - Jason F

Cleethorpes Rotary Club would like to send their thanks to Peaks Lane White Watch for their attendance at Wintringham School for the NSPCC Kids Out activity day.

July

Mr. Chris would like to thank Scunthorpe Red Watch for attending and helping him and his wife.

From Tiger Trust: Just wanted to say a massive thank you, to you and your team for the visit yesterday evening the young people had a fantastic time and the parents where very grateful for the experience that their young people had.

To the brave firefighters of Patrington Fire Department, on behalf the Expotrak team we would like to than you for your bravery and expert in handling and putting out the fire at our site. You have out eternal gratitude and respect and we're lucky to have you in our community.

Thank you to crews at Beverley for all that you did when I fell. I appreciate you sorting the lock out so that the ambulance crew could assist. I am extremely grateful for all the assistance and kindness shown to me.

A big thank you to all on Green Watch for helping with Oliver’s work experience week with Safer Roads Humber. Oliver thoroughly enjoyed his visit to Clough Road which you not only made interesting and educational but also fun. On his return to Safer Roads Humber he was able to tell staff about the role of a firefighter and what he had seen and experienced.

I live in Cleethorpes, as you may know the neighbours house caught fire and your team were out to sort it. I just wanted to say you were all absolutely amazing from start to finish, you were so calm and collected and managed the situation perfectly. A special thank you to the gentleman that escorted me back to my property for me to gather some items once it was safe. You deal with people in some of their most vulnerable times and you showed nothing but compassion and empathy and for that I am truly grateful. You are all incredible and I just wish I could show my gratitude, take care and be safe.

Thanks to the firefighters who came out to Morrisons Beverley on 28 June to help with my son, when he got stuck in the trolley. You were all amazing and were incredible with my son (and keeping me calm too) through the whole situation, which I gather was a first for us all.

To the Safer Roads Humber team, I just wanted to thank you all for the ongoing work that you do and attending the open day and allowing the visitors to see what you do and the difference they can make on the roads to be safer. While perhaps not your usual engagement event you smiled through out.

August

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Calvert Lane Blue Watch and all that attended the Summer Event at Cottingham Children's Centre today, Thursday 8 August 2024. It was a great success, with lots of lovely compliments from the families that attended and that's all thanks to your support and attendance. We'd love to hold another event next year and would love you all to join us! Again, thank you so much, we appreciate the time taken to attend the event.

To Central Hull White Watch, Thank you for bringing the DIM vehicle to show Control Red’s latest recruit. The visit was very informative, it was great to put faces to names and meet all the crew as well as see the DIM equipment.

Letter from Pocklington Rugby in the Community Charity: A massive thank you to you for your wonderful support for the Pockdown Event, held at Pocklington Rugby Club on 27 July. Pockdown is principally organised by the charity ‘Pocklington Rugby in the Community’. Whilst the charity works closely with the Pocklington R.U.F.C. it is not controlled by the club as the main aim is community based as opposed to be rugby based. However, the charity does cross
over as one of the aims of the charity is to enhance the lives of others by improving their physical and mental wellbeing. This is highlighted by the work it does in the community with such as putting on the entirely free Pockdown Event, which included a sensory tent where the SEN people in the community could go to. Other activities are the Christmas meals we send out or entertain at the Rugby Club to lonely, isolated and vulnerable people, and again each Easter with Easter Eggs sent out and delivered by our volunteers. We can make a difference, and do, but with the help and assistance of such as the Fire Service being so incredibly supportive to attend an event like this and make it worthwhile to a huge amount of people in our community.

Pupils from Burton Pidsea Primary School sent handmade thank you cards to Preston Fire Station following a school visit. Well done to the crew, the pupils really enjoyed the visit and have a look around the fire engine.

On behalf of the Blue Light Weekend organising committee I would like to thank you for coming to Withernsea last weekend and playing your part in making our event the success it was. We received lots of great feedback about the quality and interest of the blue light and emergency service stalls - although we're going to need a bigger promenade! We hope that you all had a fantastic weekend of increasing public awareness, fundraising and perhaps even recruitment! If you have any great photos you would like to share for our website please email or upload them to me - thank you.

Our WI enjoyed a talk last night from the Brigg Station. It was very informative and well presented.

To East Hull - The Fire Service do such a great job and just wanted to show his appreciation for everything we do.

Thank you to Georgia for fitting my smoke alarm and gave me some valuable information regarding fire prevention.

To Beverley Fire Crew, thank you again for all your care and skills at keeping us safe when dealing with our workshop fire.

Thank you to crews at Winterton for assisting on all call outs to help move my immobile mother before her very sad passing.

To Brough prevention team: In recent discussions with the carers team at County hall about I can best deal with my wife's dementia, they asked about fire safety and I said that we didn't have smoke alarms. This morning two young ladies arrived from Humberside FRS. Unfortunately, I forgot to take their names but I wanted to write to say how impressed I was with their help. They fitted two alarms, gave me some useful advice on fire safety and all done in a very friendly manner. I was particularly pleased with the caring way they responded to my wife who tends to get a little confused when something out of her routine is happening. I thought it was worth letting you know that they did a great job and I hope you can pass on my thanks.

September

I am writing to say a massive thank you to the Hornsea crew that responded to a request for a lift assist at summer court this afternoon. I would also like to apologise if I seemed abrupt at any point. The crew were requested to assist with a very rapid extraction of an elderly lady who was severely unwell. I do not think that it is an exaggeration that if it were not for their quick response, assessment and handling of the situation, the lady would likely not have survived the transfer to the vehicle, let alone to Hull Royal Infirmary. Due to their rapid extraction, I was able to start treatment on the vehicle and the lady was responding very well to treatment. She went from being unresponsive, peri arrest, to laid in bed at hospital, starting to talk to staff. Once again, this was only made possible by their prompt support. Once again, thank you.

I just wanted to say thank you so much to the amazing fire crew at Grimsby Fire Station who came out to an incident. They were on the scene within two minutes and were so professional and kind to us. They stayed for a long time to make sure the house was safe, and sent two engines and lots of people to make sure everyone was safe. Fortunately, it was a false alarm, we think it may have been a faulty alarm inside the property, but I can't commend the men and women who came out on that day enough!

Andrews Hedgehog Hospital wanted to pass on their thanks to the crews from Scunthorpe who attended on the 16 August and rescued a hedgehog which had got stuck in some concrete – the hedgehog has given birth to four babies since then.

Thank you ever so much for supporting UKFC and the Memorial Trust at yesterdays Service of Remembrance. As always, the cadets did us all proud, and it was greatly appreciated by the members of the Trust. Thank you once again.

Brandesburton Squirrels, Beavers and Cubs loved their visit to Beverley Fire Station. Thank you!

Thank you so much for coming out tonight. Really appreciated and lesson learnt on candles and log burners! I’m especially grateful for the time your team took to chat and reassure my son. Such great approach towards him in what was a stressful situation. When you left I think he felt very proud of himself for his loud rendition of ‘get out, stay out’ that he was taught by you guys visiting his school! You should be proud of your team.

Back in March you were kind enough to send representatives of the Fire Brigade to my dad’s funeral. It really meant a lot to us as a family that you came along. My dad was in the fire Brigade for over 20 years and had such fantastic memories of his time there. I know it would have meant a lot to him to know that the Fire Brigade representative were there at his funeral. Please could you pass on our sincere thanks and appreciation to those that attended. I am sorry that our didn’t get the opportunity to thank them in person.

To Preston Crew, thank you for attending to my uncle who had fallen. Hand on heart you all went above and beyond, treating him with dignity, respect, care, compassion and even humour!

Whilst out doing visits yesterday, we drove past an elderly gentleman on Anlaby Road who had fallen and banged his head quite badly on the pavement. Peter and I pulled over to help. He was unresponsive and the back of his head was bleeding. I called for an ambulance whilst trying to keep him calm as he started waking up and luckily an ICU nurse drove by and came to help. A few people passed by who said they knew him and knew where he lived, so Peter went to his house around the corner to get some information from his wife as he was very confused and we couldn’t get much information from him. Peter got all his personal details and medical history which helped with the questions the call handler was asking me. Peter then went into a charity shop nearby to get blankets to keep him warm and someone brought us some towels for his head. We stayed with him until the ambulance came and they were really impressed and grateful for all the information Peter had gathered.

To G and Peaks Lane Green Watch - Thank you so much for attending our SEND event at Grant Thorold Park today. The team were so friendly and great fun! They all engaged with the community and gave lots of kids the chance to get up close to a fire engine! We appreciate that it’s not easy to always attend events but it made our day extra special today. Thank you to everyone

October

On behalf of the Sirius 10, I'd like to express my sincere thanks for the amazing opportunity you gave our students over the last 3 days. The initial letter from Tigers Trust stated that they were 'committed to providing additional opportunities for students to develop a range of personal skills and attributes that contribute towards enhanced aspirations, educational outcomes, and careers readiness'. Our visit went above and beyond from start to finish. In my role as a Careers advisor, I am certain I will be interviewing a number of students next year with aspirations of joining the Fire Service after our visit. I have the pleasure of arranging and attending trips/visits and in my 5 years this has to be the best one so far. I think the 10 who came are going to be very disappointed that they won't be on next years visit! Again, thank you so much to you and your team for a well run and very engaging event.

To Emergency Preparedness - I just wanted to express my sincere thanks to you both for your time and effort with us at the Emergency Services Show this past couple of days. Your knowledge, enthusiasm and support for our LearnPro products is amazing and we are so lucky to have customers like yourselves who are so prepared and willing to advocate on our behalf. - LearnPro.

I just wanted to pass on my thanks for great work last Saturday at the North Dalton Road Safety event. Their activities were popular with both children and adults. The VR goggles and Pathfinder course info was very popular. Their attendance made the event a success.

Thank you to West Hull for attending our Macmillan Cancer Support coffee event with the appliance! The event raised a total of £902 on the day.

I just want to say a massive thank you to the three fire fighters that were waiting on Summergroves in the fire engine at half 2 on the 6/10/24. Our little fire fighter obsessed 2 year old spotted the fire engine on our walk home and wanted to come and have a look at it whilst it was parked up. When we got closer they opened the door and asked him if he would like to get in. He got to try on the helmet and stand in the back seat for a few minutes. Such a little gesture made him so happy and he hasn’t stopped smiling and talking about it since. Just want to send a massive thank you to the them for making a little boys day!

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to all of the training team. Their work ethic, commitment to excellence and dedication to see people exceed is invaluable. They go above and beyond and I wanted to thank them for their hard work, continued support and guidance both at training school and beyond.

Just a quick note to say a big thank you for committing your valuable time and effort to taking part in Hull’s LGA Corporate Peer Challenge process this week. It’s been a busy week, and the Peer team have been hugely impressed with our city, our people, our partners and our ambitions, and your contributions have been absolutely essential in enabling them to properly understand our organisation and our place. We appreciate you are very busy, so your support is very much appreciated. Whilst we got some verbal feedback today, we won’t receive the final report for a few weeks, so we will, of course, share this with you when it is published. - Hull City Council.

Dear Howden Team,

After months of planning hard work, Music in the Park finally took place, and what a fabulous, nice night it was. We were so thrilled to receive the incredibly generous gold sponsorship from Howdens Joinery and then we had the amazing support from Caroline and David behind the scenes and when we thought Howden could not be any more generous, along you came with your team.

I cannot tell you how much it meant to have so much kindness and support shown to our cause, and I still cannot quite comprehend the amount of people in your team who gave up their time to be with us and help ensure we were safe and cared for, in and around what must already be, I am sure, quite a challenging and stressful job. It also meant a great deal to my family especially my mum to know that you were there. Unfortunately, Parkinson's does create a heightened sense of anxiety, and this does take its toll but the sense of safety and reassurance you and your team gave my mum as well as our performance and audience, was immeasurable and for that I pass on my sincerest thank you to you all.

Thank you again.

To G and White Watch Peaks Lane - Good afternoon, allow me to take this opportunity to extend gratitude to you and your team that came on Saturday. The kids were really amazed and and their imaginations had took on more stuff. Thank you so much for working with us and I hope in the future we can continue to do more work together. The Health Gospel CIC.

To Beverley Fire Station - On Friday 18 October at around 9.30am, I fell tripping on the pavement on Walker Gate Road close to the Beverley Fire Station. I went by Ambulance to HRI with a head injury and needing stitches. I initially thanked a lady driving a Waitrose Van who came straight over to me when I fell and she went to the Fire Station to ask for some assistance. I do not know the names of those who helped me from the Beverley Fire Station but I am hoping with the date and time of incident you may be able to find out who they were and pass on my sincere thanks to them. They were so caring and helpful until the Ambulance took over. I always believe that people do not forget a kindness and especially when in need and that most certainly applies to me. Beverley Fire Station and staff are great Ambassadors to the Fire Service. THANK YOU!

To Prevention team - Thank you for exhibiting at this year’s Foundations Live event. Without organisations like yourselves taking part this event would not be possible. This year’s event was our biggest yet with 900+ students attending. We have received nothing but positive feedback from the schools who attended.

To Brigg Fire Station, I would like to thank you for attending one of our staff members that was impacted by debris on the road that hit there fuel tank. You attended a 999 call and applied some temporary spill tank paste/media to stem the issue. It was noted that you were really helpful in this situation, calm and informative. The driver was really grateful for your help and for you stopping any potential risk to others and the environment.

To Road Safety Team, I just wanted to say a big thank you for your involvement with the day yesterday. Feedback from the students throughout the day was really positive, and we actually received a lot of nice communications from parents last night too to tell us that their child had returned home raving about the day they had. It’s really important to me that students are able to access these opportunities, especially in a more rural school like ours, so thank you for making it happen. I hope to work with you all again soon!

November

On behalf of 300 Isle of Axholme Royal Air Force Air Cadets, we would like to say a huge thank you to one of our and all of the crew at Crowle Fire Station. And not forgetting B from Kirton in Lindsey who also attended with the drone for the evening. Thank you for facilitating our visit to the fire station for our cadets. The cadets thoroughly enjoyed their time with you, taking away some valuable lessons learnt. It was great to see so much interaction between the crew and the young cadets. We will look forward to another visit in the future for our next cohort of recruits. It’s great to see how two organisations can come together in the local community. Thanks again! From all of the staff and cadets.
