Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service added 3 new photos. Last night, crews from Hodnet Retained Fire Station, Market Drayton Fire Station, Minsterley Fire Station and Shrewsbury Fire Station Retained took part in an exercise at the former Radbrook College site in Shrewsbury. Crews had to search a large building for a number of persons who were unaccounted for, and reported trapped inside. The building had been smoke logged using cosmetic smoke, and a digital fire simulator gave the impression of a fire. Multiple breathing apparatus (BA) crews were committed into the building for search and rescue purposes, and all worked extremely hard in arduous conditions due to the high temperatures on the evening. During the exercise, a simulated emergency saw a BA crew having become entangled and trapped in cables, which had fallen from a ceiling during the fire. Emergency crews were sent in to locate and rescue their trapped colleagues and provide additional air to the trapped wearer using emergency air supply equipment. 3 days 1 hour ago.
Charmaine Whitehouse Just back from madeley academy and the excellent work done by all involved for that video, it was very well thought out and looked realistic and not actors used, will we be able to view it elsewhere such as in here or on the main website so I can show family as our daughter was a main character in it as only I could make tonight? 4 days 17 hours ago.
Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service Statement from Shropshire's Chief Fire Officer, Rod Hammerton In the early hours of this morning fire swept through a 24-storey residential tower block in north Kensington in London. This unfolding tragedy at Grenfell Tower continues even as we speak but at this stage we do know that there are an unknown number of fatalities and more than 50 people have been taken to hospitals in the area. Many others are missing. Our thoughts are with all those who have been caught up in this appalling incident including more than 200 firefighters from the London Fire Brigade and neighbouring Fire and Rescue Services who have fought the fire throughout the night and are now engaged in a search and rescue operation supported by police and ambulance service colleagues. Our thoughts are with them all. 1 week 2 days ago.
Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service We are disappointed to report that there was a break-in at Albrighton fire station in the early hours of this morning. Alongside police, we are currently investigating the robbery of essential rescue equipment from Albrighton’s fire engine. Whilst we appreciate the good-will displayed by members of the public who are suggesting crowdfunding for replacements, we feel it is important to let the people of Albrighton know that this will not be necessary. We have provisions in place for incidents such as these, and the equipment will be replaced in the near future. We would also like to reassure people of Albrighton that fire cover will not be affected by this setback. We ask that you remain vigilant, and if you see anything or have any information please report it to the Police on 101 immediately quoting incident number 38s of June 9. 2 weeks 1 day ago.
