999 Emergency Services Day

Annually on 9 September we show our support for the selfless people that work in our emergency services, past and present.  More than 250,000 first responders serve as ambulance crew, fire fighters, police, coast guard and in search and rescue teams. They answer calls to fight fires, practise medicine, police the streets and save lives at sea, on mountains, low lands and in caves.  Left to right, the Elected Mayor Marvin Rees, High Sheriff Dr John Manley, Lord-Lieutenant Peaches Golding OBE CStJ, two ambulance crew, Lord Mayor Cllr Jos Clark and Acting Dean Canon Michael Johnson attended a flag raising thanksgiving service on College Green.
