A £500 fine for not wearing a seat belt? No thanks. Click it before you set off and keep everyone in the car safe.

Oh Rodney! 🐴 Firefighters from Sandbach and animal rescue teams from Bollington and Knutsford rescued a horse trapped over a bar in his horsebox on the M6. With support from an Ashbrook Equine Hospital vet, Rodney was freed unharmed and taken to hospital to rest. Great work all.

“We try to honor them every single day, not just on 9/11. We try to live up to the expectation that they set. They had airplanes hanging out of buildings, and nobody turned around and walked away,” said Captain Thomas Riches of the Rescue Battalion.
Riches joined the department in 2006, following the path of his father, retired Deputy Chief James Riches, and three brothers, including Firefighter Jimmy Riches, who made the Supreme Sacrifice on September 11, 2001, just a day shy of his 30th birthday.

🎃👻🕸️ Happy Hallowe’en! 🎃👻🕸️
Enjoy your spooky celebrations today! But please take extra care when dressing up in costumes as they may be less fire resistant than everyday clothing.
In an emergency remember to #StopDropRoll and then #CoolCallCover

It’s been a hot week for BA instructors Sam, Pat, Darren and Shay who have been working hard with both theory and practical sessions. A visit to a high rise building in the city also allowed for different scenarios to improve skills and confidence.

Make sure your chimney is ready and safe for use this winter as we head into the colder months.
Get your chimney swept and make sure you have working smoke alarms.
