Thank you very much to all those who attended the Carlisle Fire Station Open Day on the 15th at Carlisle East Fire Station.

We are now proud to announce that £2271.50 was raised in aid of the Firefighters Charity! 👏

This is an excellent effort, and we could not have achieved this without the support of each and every one of you, as well as for the generous donations from Local Businesses.

We would welcome any feedback from the event, so just drop us a PM and we will make a note of this for future events!

Thank you all sincerely once again. Carlisle Red Watch 👊

Disappointing that we are still attending incidents involving supposed ‘controlled burns’. You may think that you have deemed it safe, but the vegetation is so dry, all it takes is a stray spark to start a secondary fire, just like an incident we have just attended near Wreay.

Please be responsible- don’t use open flames, fireworks, bonfires, disposable bbq’s, or other heat sources.
