From the Friday 5k run to the Pride Breakfast attended with other local partners and blue light services, we didn’t let the typically poor British weather rain on the Pride Parade supporting and participating in some fantastic weekend activities alongside colleagues, families, friends, and communities 🌈 We're proud to have been involved such a well-attended event; engaging with the community, ensuring their safety, and celebrating diversity and inclusion both within our workforce and the communities we serve. Thank you to all who attended, engaged with our officers, staff and volunteers, and visited our fantastic region 👋 See you in 2025? #NorthernPride #NE1 #UnapologeticallyVisible @Northern Pride

    Some timely advice from our local partners Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service as we mark #WorldDrowningPreventionDay 🌊⚠️ Our #TeamNP Marine Unit will be supporting the free water safety event on Newcastle Quayside this Sunday 28th July 11am-3pm, so please drop by and say hello! 👋 Can't make it? 😢 This safety advice is still very important, be sure to share with your family, friends and colleagues 📣

    Did you know that simply mimicking a starfish can help you stay afloat in the water during times of distress? To mark World Drowning Prevention Day (WDPD), Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service, along with partners from across the region, have come together to join hands to form a unified floating circle at Cullercoats Bay, North Tyneside, and highlight the dangers of the water. Always remember to: 🔵 Be prepared 🔵 Never go alone 🔵 Acclimatise slowly to avoid cold water shock 🔵 Always be seen 🔵 Stay within your depth 🔵 Float to Live by making a starfish shape in the water Call 999 when reporting emergency incidents on land and ask for the fire service, or call 112 and ask for the coastguard if you get into difficulty or see someone else in trouble along the coast. PLUS, we will also be hosting a free water safety event on Newcastle Quayside (near the Millennium Bridge) from 11 am to 3 pm this Sunday. People, young and old, will be able to have a tour of a fire appliance and watch a water rescue demonstration by our fireboat team.

    Today's to-do list: watch this video ✅ 📺 Line of Duty star Vicky McClure has been in the North East increasing awareness around dementia and the support available should a loved-one go missing. The Bafta award-winning actress and founder of Our Dementia Choir visited HQ to promote the use of the Herbert Protocol – a form used by all police forces to help find a vulnerable person who is missing. The form can be filled out by carers, family, friends, or the vulnerable person themselves and contains important information including a physical description and photo, medical information, places previously located and contact details 🖊️ Promoting dementia awareness is a cause very close to Vicky’s heart, after her grandmother was diagnosed and later died from the disease. For more information make sure you watch the video and find links you need to complete the form in the comments below 👇
