Fantastic photos from yesterday's rescue sent to us by the neighbour. Southsea Fire Stn ALP crew performed a very difficult pitch to make the rescue with support from Eastleigh Fire Station rope rescue team and Hightown Fire Station St Mary's Fire Stn crew. Amazing to be a part of such a professional team.

Lots of hard work from all Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire & Rescue Service crews at the scrapyard fire in #Southampton overnight. First time I’ve ever witnessed the awesome firefighting capabilities of a harbour tug in person, great assistance provided by ABP Southampton

We have started construction of a wellbeing garden for use by our firefighters to help contribute to positive mental health at work. We are very grateful for the support of MKM Building Supplies in Eastleigh by supplying building materials to allow our firefighters to build the garden!

Green watch undertook training with Southampton Airport Fire Crews which simulated an engine fire. We were then presented with a scenario drill where numerous casualties were required to be rescued from the fuselage. A great opportunity for some joint learning for all crews
