Pair pass out to join fire service in South Holland

Two new, on-call firefighters in Crowland and Long Sutton respectively are among a group of nine to successfully complete their training this week.

Daniel Martin (Crowland) and Alan Lawrence (Long Sutton) took part in an official passing out parade when they were presented with certificates after 32 days of training on equipment, appliances and procedures.

Becoming an on-call firefighter is a real commitment, not only to the service, but also to the community as a whole

Chief Fire Officer Nick Borrill said: “Completing the initial training is a real success for our new firefighters and I wish them all the best for their future careers.
