Proud to have been HM Chief Inspector of Scottish Fire & Rescue Service (ret. 2021) & Chief Fire Officer of Wiltshire Fire & Rescue Service (ret. 2016)

Today we remember those who fought for our freedom and the sacrifices they made. We are forever in their debt. We also remember those still serving today. #LestWeForget #WeWillRememberThem

A day of reflection today. Five years can seem like a few days, time loses meaning but memories never can. Have really missed you being around Paul. You are still very much thought about and part of our lives. Thinking of everyone who loved Paul today

As a proud Executive Committee member of AFSA, it is always a pleasure to attend the conferences. Another packed agenda with thought provoking topics for discussion. Plus the added benefit of catching up with people and the opportunity to meet new people too. #AFSA #FireFamily

What a magical day & evening in Rovaniemi. Reindeer & Husky rides, Northern Lights tour and having a frozen lake setting for a midnight feast of freshly made pizza. Memories that @SimonRouthJones and I will always treasure #NorthernLights #Reindeer #HuskyRide @VisitRovaniemi
