Emergency services continue to respond to a large fire on Lancelott Court, off Three Springs Road in Pershore.

The initial call was received at around 4.30pm today (Thursday 13th August) with temperatures in the town reaching highs of 38 degrees earlier in the day.

One person has been treated for smoke inhalation. Thankfully no other injuries have been reported at this time.

A number of homes have been damaged, and 30 properties in the area have been evacuated. A rest centre is in place at Pershore Leisure Centre to support residents who are currently unable to return home.

We are grateful to both British Red Cross and St John’s Ambulance for the support they are offering people at the rest centre.

Residents in the wider area who have not been evacuated are advised to keep windows and doors closed as a precaution due to remaining smoke and smoulder in the area.

Surrounding roads will remain closed for the time being but they will be reopened as soon as it’s safe to do so. This is to ensure public safety and allow emergency services to continue their work as quickly and effectively as possible.

Approximately 200 properties are currently without power, details about power outages are available from National Grid here.

We recognise this will be an upsetting time for the local community and would like to thank you for your patience and cooperation while we respond to the incident.

We took part in a service exercise yesterday simulating a large building fire with casualties unaccounted for. Crews used Breathing Apparatus to search for casualties and administered trauma care.
This was alongside multiple other stations and set up by Evesham Fire Station.

On the way back we were mobilised to a nearby RTC (Road Traffic Collision) where crews dealt with casualties and made the scene safe, working alongside the police and ambulance services.
