Bodmin Community Fire Station

31/08/2026

AUGUST …..

🚒 WHAT. A. MONTH. 🔥

107 fire calls !
One hundred and seven in 31 days!

From Launceston to Lands end.
From the fun of station open day and Bodmin carnival, to a seriously busy month of wildfires, vehicle fires, bonfires, animal rescues and standby duties supporting other stations attending local incidents.

We even managed to watch the eclipse while dampening down the remains of a field fire. 🌘🔥

A special thank you to the partners, families, employers and loved ones at home who have supported us through an exceptionally busy month. With 107 calls, there have inevitably been cancelled plans, missed events, late nights and plenty of interrupted evenings. Your patience, understanding and continued support are hugely appreciated and never taken for granted. ❤️

107 calls. Countless hours. One incredible station.

A job well done to all CFRS colleagues, it’s been one to remember. 🚒

🏃 🏃‍♀️ Congratulations St Austell Community Fire Station Green watch !!
What an achievement 👏.
Still time to donate for an amazing charity.

FINISHED! At 14:30 today Green Watch completed their amazing journey of running along the coast path from Bude Community Fire Station to St. Just Community Fire Station (thank you for such an awesome welcome!)

What a team and a huge thank you to all our family, friends and colleagues that have supported and made this mission for charity a success, whether it was running with us, baking or making food, Livingstone Electrics Ltd for helping us out with equipment and essentials, or supporting behind the scenes. And thank you to all the wonderful people who donated, each and every one of you is helping support children with cancer in Cornwall ♥️

There's still time to donate here, over 200km of absolutely grueling coast path run, over 30,000 ft of climb, bumps, blisters, bruises, all worth it!

Almost a full day without attending a wildfire 🤞🏼, we thought we would invite our friends back to attend Bodmin Carnival with us 🚒 ! We hope to see you all through the town in the next few hours 🥳🎉.

🚒🔥 A huge thank you to our fire crews across Cornwall.

Over the last few days, crews have tackled multiple wildfires across the county and multiple crews are currently out attending wildfires. Often working day and night with very little rest.

Around 75% of Cornwall Fire & Rescue Service is made up of on call firefighters. They have full time jobs and lives outside the service, but when the call comes, they drop everything to help protect our communities. ❤️

🔥 Help prevent wildfires:
• Don’t drop ci******es or leave glass behind.
• Only use barbecues/fires where permitted.
• Never leave a fire unattended.
• If you see a fire, get to safety and call 999.

📍 Use what3words to give emergency services a precise location, especially in remote areas.

Stay safe, protect our countryside, and thank you to every firefighter giving up their time to keep Cornwall safe. 👏🚒
