Tonight we had the pleasure of hosting 1st Thaxted Carver's Beavers at Newport Fire Station.

They learned all about fire safety, smoke alarms, and most importantly a tour around our super cool fire engine as well as a high majority vote for some water spraying.

Firefighters from Newport have just attended a fire at the Coach & Horses, Ananta Thai Food in Wicken Bonhunt.

When we arrived, the thatched roof was on fire.

Luckily - we arrived within minutes of being mobilised, and thanks to the quick hard work of the crews we managed to fully extinguish the fire and prevent the rest of the building from becoming involved.

We were quickly joined by crews from Stansted, Saffron Walden, Harlow, and Chelmsford.

A fantastic effort and result by all involved.
