Here's the December edition of the Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service e-Newsletter.
Year review of 2020Like most people, 2020 has been particularly busy for us, with the addition of supporting communities throughout covid. Here's a snapshot of what 2020 was like for our staff.Watch - Year review of 2020 Think twice before you drink/drug drive![]() Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service, Cheshire Police and the county’s Police and Crime Commissioner are urging the public to stop and think before travelling on the roads after having a drink this Christmas. Officers across the county will be out throughout December cracking down on those who think it is acceptable to travel on the roads whilst under the influence as part of a national operation. They will also be targeting motorists in the mornings who could still be over the limit. Firefighters will be raising awareness of the dangers of taking to the roads after drinking or taking drugs throughout the month in a bid to reduce the number of serious and fatal collisions.
