Proud of @FirePenrith attending a flooding. Found a lady on her on own in her house that had been badly affected by burst pipes earlier in the week. Sat with her and calmed her down, sorted her a Christmas dinner and some gifts, then back for a welfare check later in the day.

This morning at 0500 we joined appliances from Carlisle, Penrith, Wigton, Scottish Fire, Brampton & Longtown at a well established building fire near Carlisle. Lazonby assisted with water supply to the incident, command support and extinguishing hot spots inside.

Take no unnecessary journeys in this weather.. If you do need to use the roads be sure to take extra care and never enter floodwater, always find an alternative route. – at Lazonby, England

We’ve just been to a kitchen fire and really struggled to get to the house involved due to parked cars. Please, please consider access when you park. 🙏🏻 🧑🏽🚒👩🏼🚒

Today marks 26 years since FF Fleur Lombard died aged 21 whilst fighting an arson fire in Bristol.
Fleur was the first woman firefighter to die in the line of duty in peacetime and my thoughts are with her family friends and colleagues. She will never be forgotten. #FleurLombard

Spent the evening crewing this command unit at a high rise exercise this week. Fantastic piece of @CumbriaFire kit that can be a massive asset to IC’s. Google maps, risk information & incident objectives up and being displayed within minutes of arriving.
I was very pleased to have managed to get some photographs of this @CumbriaFire Enhanced Logistical Support Unit based at @FirePenrith. Something different being based on a DAF LF chassis, however I’m a fan!
