Fire Dog Ruby was hit by a careless cyclist in a park this morning. The person involved afterwards moved her aside with their foot and cycled away. Ruby is now at the vets but will recover. Please take when cycling in shared areas. #letsallgetalong

Earlier today, our teams across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight observed a minute’s silence in honour of His Royal Highness, The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Our thoughts are with Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Family at this time.
