Happy Father’s Day to dads across Lancashire and beyond.

Today we recognise dads, step-dads, grandads and all those who take on a fatherly role celebrating the support, guidance and care you give every day.

With temperatures rising this Sunday, many of us will be making the most of the sunshine.

Whatever your plans, a few simple choices can help keep you and others safe.

Looking to cool off? Open water can be dangerously cold, even on the hottest days. If you fancy a swim, choose a swimming pool instead.

Planning a day outdoors? Swap the BBQ for a picnic. Dry conditions mean it only takes one spark to start a wildfire.

Have a great day and enjoy the sunshine responsibly 🤍

Our crew from Chorley Fire Station have been out and about in the community carrying out a variety of activities. 🚒

We managed to capture some great action shots from off-site training, where firefighters practised using the roof ladder to maintain vital operational skills. On returning to station, the crew headed straight to the drill yard for more training, this time pitching the 13.5m ladder to continue developing teamwork, confidence and competence.

Training plays a huge part in ensuring our firefighters remain ready to respond whenever the community needs us.

Could you see yourself doing this? Find out more and apply to become an on-call firefighter today: https://www.lancsfirerescue.org.uk/career/on-call-firefighter2?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=oncall_jun26

A walk with the dog. A run. A day out with family.

Almost half of those who lose their lives in water-related incidents never intended to enter the water.

This , we're highlighting the hidden dangers of rivers, canals and the coast, and sharing simple advice that could save your life or someone else's.

If you fall into the water, fight your instinct to panic and Float to Live.

And if someone else is in trouble, always stay on the bank, call 999 and ask for Fire and Rescue, or the Coastguard if you're at the coast.

Please take a moment to watch and share this video.

With Toy Story 5 hitting cinemas today, even the newest toys need to stay powered up safely…

Lithium-ion batteries power so much of what we use (phones, tablets, scooters, toys, and more) and unsafe charging can be a fire risk.

* Always use the correct charger
* Always charge devices on a flat, hard surface (never on beds or sofas)
* Don’t leave devices plugged in after they’re fully charged
* Never charge batteries on your escape route or in hallways

Because when we look after each other, we stay safe....
as they say, you’ve got a friend in me..
