We're incredibly proud of the eleven firefighters from our service who took part in an emotional memorial event to mark the 25th anniversary of 9/11. 🧑‍🚒👏

A total of 234 firefighters travelled to Atlanta, USA, for the event which took place on Saturday 5th September.

The group climbed 110 floors, matching the height of the World Trade Centre, to honour those who lost their lives.

Speaking about the experience, Bob Mortimer, said: "I joined the service on 31st August 2001 and the events that took place less than two weeks later shaped my entire career.

"The climb was an emotional event; each of us carrying a lanyard with a picture of one of the 343 firefighters who died on 9/11.

"I'm proud to be a part of the organising committee that managed to get hundreds of firefighters representing 96 per cent of UK Fire Services to Atlanta to take part in the memorial stair climb."

A huge congratulations to a team of Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service firefighters who have taken part in a memorial event marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11 this year.

A total of 343 firefighters, the same number of firefighters who lost their lives on 11 September 2001, including 10 from Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service, travelled to Atlanta, USA, for this weekend’s event.

The challenge was to climb 110 floors, the height of the World Trade Centre, to honour those who lost their lives.

Staffordshire firefighter, Bob Mortimer, who is based at Cannock Community Fire Station, is part of the group.

He said it was an ‘honour and a privilege’ to be involved.

Well done guys, we’re very proud of you.

Two people who rescued an elderly couple from a house fire in east Staffordshire have been recognised with a special commendation.

On 9 December last year, Tim and Nikki Horobin were out shopping when they saw smoke coming from a house on Clays Lane, Branston.

Nikki quickly called 999 and flagged down a local resident to find out the exact address.

Tim ran into the property and carried out a woman in her 70s. He also guided her husband out of the house.

Chief Fire Officer, Glynn Luznyj, who presented the award, said: “Nikki and Tim’s actions were nothing short of heroic that day and thanks to their bravery, nobody was seriously hurt in this incident."

❗️ Setting grass fires is not just a bit of fun. It can quickly get out of control and have devastating consequences. 🦌🌳

Please think about the impact of your decisions before you start a fire.
