BRV attended an RTC where a car hit a parked vehicle. A dog was found locked in the boot, silent through the night in freezing temperatures. Crews rescued her, and she'll be cared for by police for the night. Please don’t leave animals in extreme cold, and drive carefully!

We had a visit from one of our local children's groups. Showed them all the equipment that we have to keep them, and ourselves safe, and best of all, a chance to use the hose reels! 🚒💦🔫 #futurefirefighter #safety

🚒Aston white watch have attended 4 local Road Traffic Collisions in the past 3 days.
With the change in the weather it is vitally important that you all check your vehicle tyres are safe.
CHECK THEM MONTHLY!

TYRE CHECK..
1. Tread depth - A minimum of 1.6mm across three quarters of the tyre is the minimum UK legal requirement.
2. Damage - Check there are no cuts or objects imbedded in the tyre.
3. Deterioration - check for bulges and cracks in the rubber (often seen on the sidewalls)

If you're the designated chef at the BBQ this weekend, stay sober. Alcohol and cooking don't mix. Always ensure your BBQ is well away from fences, trees and sheds and fully extinguish it when done.
In this weather, even a small amount of hot ash can easily start a fire.

We’re seeing a huge increase in the number of #RTC’s we’re attending and these images show a few of the very recent ones. When someone is killed or seriously injured, the whole community mourns. Please slow down.
