NFCC Chair reflects on the Grenfell Tower fire: "If anyone had told me then we would still have 160 buildings with failed ACM cladding systems that haven’t even started remediation, I would not have believed them. It is unbelievable it has taken this long.

More than 25 wildfires hit the UK over the weekend - with more serious incidents reported today. We urge the public to take additional care - a single spark from a discarded cigarette, a camp fire or a BBQ can have catastrophic and deadly consequences.

The Independent: NFCC Chair in response to plan to release lanterns to support NHS: I do not believe lanterns should be used under any circumstances; I am concerned this type of activity could put additional pressure on FRSs & further strain on the NHS”.

We are seeing a number of wildfires across the country. We are urging landowners not to undertake unnecessary prescribed or controlled burns at time when all FRSs are under additional pressures due to #COVID -19 pandemic
