⚠️ Public Safety Notice – Impersonation Alert

We have been made aware of a couple of incidents in the Martlesham area involving three men in a Citroën van claiming to be from Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service and offering free electrical checks on solar panel installations.

These individuals were not wearing uniform and did not show any SFRS identification.

This has been reported to the police.

Please remember:

✅ All SFRS personnel will always carry an official ID card, even if not in uniform.
✅ Every ID card includes a verification number on the back, which you can call to confirm the person’s identity.
✅ If you are unsure, do not allow anyone into your home.

If you encounter anything suspicious, please report it to Suffolk Police via 101 or 999 in an emergency.

Please share this message to help keep others safe.

Leiston fire crew would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy and safe 2026!
This year has been another busy year on station, with us attending over 140 shouts. We have welcomed 3 new recruits, Oli, Tyler and Callum, wished good luck to Chris, Stu and Luke who are all now responding to other stations, and farewell to Harry & Ant!
None of what we do would be possible without the support of our family… so thank you to you all!
