The way firefighters in Norfolk responded to the coronavirus pandemic, which has included them driving ambulances, has been praised by inspectors.
Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service was visited by Her Majesty s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire and Rescue Services in October, as part of a national inspection programme.
And the report praised the way the Norfolk County Council-run service, had stepped up to the plate as coronavirus spread.
Inspector Zoe Wilkinson, said: We were impressed with how the service adapted and responded to the pandemic effectively and how it put the health and wellbeing of its people at the forefront of decision making.
