Thank you Derbyshire High Sheriff for taking your time to visit Wirksworth Fire station Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service and meeting the crew there. It was great to meet you and talk about your priorities over the next 8 months. On-call units are so valuable to their communities and need all our support and thanks
