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

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 @mkmbs in Eastleigh by supplying building materials to allow our firefighters to build the garden!

Lots of hard work from all @HantsIOW_fire 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 @ABPSouthampton

Fantastic photos from yesterday's rescue sent to us by the neighbour. @Southsea24 ALP crew performed a very difficult pitch to make the rescue with support from @Eastleigh32 rope rescue team and @Hightown56 @StMarys54 crew. Amazing to be a part of such a professional team.
