Essex County Fire and Rescue Service
The Service celebrated 999 Day on Thursday, 9 September by recognising all their staff and volunteers that work to keep Essex safe.
In its 4th year, the national 999 Day campaign seeks to recognise the approximately 2 million people who work and volunteer for emergency services across the UK.
It also recognises and remembers more than 7,500 members of UK emergency services who have been killed in the line of duty in the last 200 years.
Essex County Fire and Rescue Service asked members of the public to join them in observing a two minutes’ silence at 9am on 9th September to remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice when protecting their communities.
In Essex, ECFRS works with Essex Police, the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust (EEAST), NHS Trusts in North, Mid and South Essex as well as Her Majesty’s Coastguard, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) and Essex Search and Rescue to help keep people safe.
Throughout the day, ECFRS shared stories of how the Service has worked with emergency service colleagues throughout the pandemic and encouraged members of the public to learn more about the different emergency services in Essex.

Essex Police is proud to work alongside its emergency colleagues to help our communities, keep people safe and catch criminals.
Please help by not misusing the emergency 999 service. Calling 999 when it's not a genuine emergency could prevent Essex Police getting to someone who really needs help.
Antisocial behaviour and non-emergency crime can now be reported online through the #digital101 service. Please visit www.essex.police.uk/digital101 for more information.
If you aren't sure if your call is for Essex Police or you have a general question about policing, you can visit www.askthe.police.uk/

Our public meeting in South Woodham will now be held on Wednesday the 29th of September, due to an unforeseen personal issue affecting availability. The event on the 29th will be held at Marsh Farm between 7:00 and 8:30pm and be chaired by an independent facilitator, Peter Blackman.
We apologise for any inconvenience this change of date causes.
The event is an opportunity for the community to ask questions relating to Essex County Fire and Rescue Service, and to hear about the progress of South Woodham Ferrers Fire Station transitioning from a Day Crewed to an On Call station. It will also be a valuable opportunity for the Commissioner and senior leaders from Essex County Fire and Rescue Service to hear from the community.
