A bit of remote boat action at Polson In Cornwall area during an ADCP training session with one of our suppliers🚤 Deploying ADCP devices in remote boats enables us to capture critical flow data in all conditions in places that are inaccessible on foot. #Hydrometry @envagencySW

Overnight & into tomorrow we're expecting heavy rain to fall onto high ground in Devon & Cornwall. On already wet catchments this will cause fast run off into the rivers & they will rise quickly accordingly. Keep up to date with our flood warnings here: flood-warning-information.se…

The old ICU back up and running as an ICU 15 years after we moved out. One of many things been done to create more ICU beds.

If you asked me in Sept what I would be doing in March.... I would never have said building an #ICU in a week.... however that was pre #Covid19. @UHP_NHS teams are working around the clock to prepare, train, sim, procure, support, manage and care. Never been more #Proud 👊🏻👏

I am an NHS nurse and not social media savvy - I only have 106 followers & I’m OK with that. I want to show how Covid-19 can spread VERY easily from 1 person to millions. Share this and show those who are not listening how easily things spread. 1 retweet is like touching 1 person

Any morning spent amidst the can do attitude of our @EnvAgencySW @DCfieldteamsEA is time well spent! Always lessons to be learnt from those making it happen on the ground. So thanks to them for making vital improvements to our essential #raingauge site high on Dartmoor...

The last double-up overnight camp was in 2007 with @nav4adventure (by proxy). This year, for the 20th Anniversary @SilvaUK #GL3D, we thought this little gem of an overnight camp (Buttermere) was worth spending a couple of days at 😍 Roll on day 2! #NotJustLakes
