Badly parked cars often block fire engines from @LincsFireRescue from getting to where they need to be.

Busy day at Wainfleet dealing with the effects of overtopping on the River Steeping. The 2019 Wainfleet floods still fresh in the memory for both communities and our multi-agency responders #StormBabet

A well earned result for working carers around the UK 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
After years of campaigning, yesterday we were at the House of Lords celebrating the Carer's Leave Act! This new law will give millions of people juggling employment and unpaid care new rights at work.

Here at @LincsFireRescue we are proud to support #carersweek and to stand with all unpaid carers.
📣 It’s #CarersWeek 2023!
Unpaid carers face huge challenges every day. It’s essential they receive greater recognition and support.
This Carers Week, stand in solidarity with the carers you know and every carer in the UK by saying I CARE: carersweek.org

@LincsFireRescue @mrmattking A great opportunity tonight conducting a multi-agency RTC simulation with @liveshq @MichaelScragg29 demonstrating great working practices and shared understanding. #teamwork #JESIP
Brilliant documentary on BBC2 #insideourautisticminds Hearing Murray say he “yearns to speak” is powerful. A great insight into non-speaking autism.

Something a little different today for @LouthFire crews. Poor old Buddy got himself in a bit of a pickle but after a bit of assistance he was reunited with his owner. It's not just fires 🐕🚒
