This June we continue to mark PTSD awareness month. Our thoughts go out to all of our 999 workers who battle with this condition on a daily basis, reliving multiple horrific incidents they have attended.

It is important to recognise if a loved one, friend or colleague is suffering through knowing the symptoms:
- re experiencing through flashbacks or nightmares
- physical symptoms such as sweating or trembling
- avoidance of places or talking about things
- withdrawal from friends, socialising and leisure
- Hyperarousal such as loss temper, being easily startled, being short tempered, not sleeping or difficulty concentrating.
- substance abuse
- self harm
- self destructive behaviour or risk taking
- other diagnosed conditions present such as depression
- misdiagnosing symptoms for other conditions such as chest pain, headache or stomach problems.

It's not a weakness to suffer from this condition
It's not a weakness to seek help You do not have to suffer alone
There is lots of help available
Tell a family member, friend or colleague how you feel
We are here to do what we can to help you - do reach out to us
You are not alone

The command support unit was mobilised at 18:24 to assist at the below incident. 🚒🔥

Incident - Commercial Premise Fire
07/05/2026 17:57
Handlemaker Road, Frome

2 pumps from Frome and an aerial platform were mobilised to reports of a large fire in the area. Crews quickly identified the industrial unit that was issuing flames and smoke.

A further 4 appliances were requested due to the size of the fire and the need for personnel, these came from Shepton Mallet, Trowbridge, Westbury and Warminster. The fire was extinguished using 12 breathing apparatus (BA), 3 main jets, 2 hosereel jets and the Ariel ladder platform.

The cause of the fire is believed to be accidental.

We attended this incident in the early hours of the morning, the road remains closed for national grid to carry out work on the downed power lines.

*UPDATE: We can confirm that the B3151 at Compton Dundon has reopened following repairs to power cables after a single vehicle collision at 2am today, Saturday 19 April.*

The B3151 at Compton Dundon is closed after an overnight collision which has damaged power lines.

Emergency services were called to a single vehicle collision just after 2.10am on Sunday 19 April. The driver was freed from the vehicle by the fire and rescue service and taken to hospital by ambulance.

The B3151 is expected to remain closed between its junction with Reynald's Way and the B3153 at Littleton Hill until 3pm, while the power cables are repaired.

Drivers are advised to avoid the area where possible and allow extra time for their journeys. An alternative route between Street and Somerton is via Reynald's Way and the B3153, but this may not be suitable for HGVs. Please check https://orlo.uk/iDj8g for updates.
