A massive round of applause for our very own Jamie, who smashed the London Marathon yesterday! ๐Ÿ…

Jamie crossed the finish line with an incredible official time of 3 hours and 22 minutes. We couldnโ€™t be prouder of the dedication heโ€™s shown throughout his training and on the course itself.

๐Ÿ’ฐ Impact Update

๐Ÿ”— Still time to donate!

Good luck to Firefighter Gough from Bicester Fire Station who will be running the London Marathon!

Instead of driving our fire engines and running around the drill yard, this Sunday, Jamie will be running the 26.2miles on behalf of The Firefighters Charity in memory of FF Jennie Logan and FF Martyn Sadler.

Everyone from the station will be watching and supporting you, Jamie! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿš’ โค๏ธ

At 17:16 today crews from Bicester Fire Station Banbury Fire Station and Kidlington Fire Station were called to a lorry that had gone onto itโ€™s side at Baynardโ€™s Green roundabout at the junction of the A43 and B4100.

The driver suffering from minor injuries was unable to leave the vehicle and was released by the fire service after a handover from South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust who were in attendance when we arrived.

There was a road closure in place which has now been reopened whilst Thames Valley Police dealt with the rest of the incident supported by a local recovery firm to move the vehicle.

This incident was a fantastic example of our blue light partners working together to achieve a successful outcome.
