Fire Safety Message – Help Us Reduce Preventable Fires!
We have seen an increase in the number of fires across Guernsey in recent weeks, including grass fires, bin fires and moorland fires. With the dry weather, these incidents place significant pressure on emergency service resources and increase the risk to people, property and the environment.
Many of these fires are preventable. We are asking everyone to take extra care when disposing of smoking materials, using barbecues, and discarding litter. Even parking vehicles on grass where the hot components can set fire to dry grass and vegetation. We strongly suggest avoiding any outdoor burning whilst this dry spell lasts.
By staying vigilant and acting responsibly, we can help reduce the number of incidents and ensure our crews remain available to respond to emergencies when they are needed most.
🔥Dispose of cigarettes safely
🔥Never leave fires or barbecues unattended
🔥Report fires immediately by calling 999
🔥Help protect our countryside and communities
Thank you for your support and cooperation.

Our Colleagues from Ambulance and Rescue Guernsey will be conducting emergency response driver training over the next few weeks at various locations around the island. This means from time to time you may see more ambulance vehicles using blue lights and sirens.
This training is essential to allow our colleagues to respond safely and efficiently to medical emergencies around the island.

Thanks to Tony Rive for sending us these photos of the Flying Christine in action at the weekend.
Flying Christine III was deployed to Herm twice in 24 hours, with an urgent medical case early on Monday morning and a medical incident on Sunday, when the marine ambulance was diverted while travelling back from the Sark Sea Sunday service.
So far this month the Flying Christine has responded to 9 cases, 6 to Sark and 3 to Herm.
A big thanks to our volunteer boat crews who all give up their time and expertise to transport paramedic-led medical teams to the other islands of the Bailiwick and convey the sick and injured to Guernsey for further care.
