Firefighting and teamwork skills put to the test in huge Sutton exercise

Firefighters from Kirkby’s Ashfield station were joined by crews from Mansfield, Edwinstowe, Eastwood, Collingham, Newark and Highfields, as well as a Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service high-volume pump for the exercise.

The training event was held at DMW Logistics, on Oddicroft Lane.

An Ashfield station spokesman said: “We would like to thank DMW for accommodating us during the training exercise. It was very worthwhile.”
