🚒 Chesham Crew – Reinspection

At 02:00 this morning, Chesham crew were mobilised to a reinspection of The Bury in Chesham following an earlier fire at the premises.

The crew carried out checks for any remaining hotspots and identified a small number still present. The crew spent some considerable time on scene. A hosereel was utilised to dampen these areas down, reducing the risk of the fire redeveloping.

Reinspections are an important part of our response, ensuring incidents remain safe after the initial fire has been brought under control. 🚒🔥

🚒 Water Rescue Training 🌊

This evening, Chesham crew attended BFRS Beaconsfield Fire Station to take part in a live water rescue training session, developing our skills and understanding of the risks and challenges associated with incidents involving water.

Water rescue incidents can be extremely hazardous, with fast flowing water, hidden obstacles, cold temperatures and changing conditions all presenting significant risks to both members of the public and emergency responders. Regular practical training helps ensure our crews are prepared to work safely and effectively when called upon.

A valuable session with plenty of learning and hands-on experience.

A big thank you to the Beaconsfield crew for hosting us and supporting another excellent training evening. 👏🚒🌊

🚒 HOAX CALLS PUT LIVES AT RISK 🚒

This evening, Chesham crew, alongside Amersham crew, were mobilised to a reported domestic fire in Chesham.

On arrival, crews quickly established that there was no fire and the call had been a hoax.

Hoax calls are not harmless. Every time fire crews are sent to a false incident, appliances and firefighters are taken away from where they may genuinely be needed. This could delay our response to a house fire, road traffic collision or someone whose life is in immediate danger.

Emergency driving also carries its own risks to our crews and other road users, making deliberately false calls both dangerous and irresponsible.

Please remember: 999 is for emergencies. Deliberately making a hoax call can have serious consequences and, most importantly, could cost someone their life.

🚨 Incident 🚨

This afternoon, Chesham crew and our Rural Firefighting Vehicle (RFV) were mobilised to a large field fire at Horton Wharf Farm, Ivinghoe.

We supported crews from Dunstable Fire Station and Leighton Buzzard fire Station from Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, as firefighters worked together to bring the fire under control.

The RFV proved invaluable dampening down of areas across the difficult terrain.

With the continued dry conditions, fires like this can spread incredibly quickly through crops and vegetation. Please take extra care when out and about and help us prevent further fires.

**Shout** 📟 🔥 🚒

This evening, Chesham crew and our RFV were mobilised to assist our colleagues from BFRS Amersham Fire Station following a fire believed to have been started by a discarded cigarette.

Crews worked through dense vegetation to locate and extinguish the fire before it could spread further.

With the current hot and extremely dry conditions, something as small as a discarded cigarette can quickly develop into a serious fire, putting surrounding woodland, fields, wildlife and nearby properties at risk.

Please dispose of ci******es safely and never throw them from vehicles or onto dry ground.

A few seconds of care can prevent a much bigger incident. 🔥 🌾🚒

05/08/2026

Today, members of Chesham Fire Station had the honour of attending the funeral of our former Sub Officer, Phil Mason, to pay our respects and celebrate a life dedicated to the Fire & Rescue Service.

The Chesham crew were joined by colleagues from Blue Watch BFRS Aylesbury Fire Station and Buckinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service’s Ceremonial Team.

It was especially meaningful to have Watch Commander Nettleton with us who formed part of the ceremonial team, who began his fire service career at Chesham Fire Station.

It was a moving and fitting service that reflected Phil’s commitment, professionalism and the lasting impact he had on those who served alongside him. His dedication to the fire service will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing and working with him.

On behalf of everyone at Chesham Fire Station, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to Phil’s family for allowing us to be part of such a special and personal farewell. It was a privilege to stand alongside you in celebrating Phil’s life and service.

Rest easy, Phil. Your watch is complete. ❤️🚒

🚒 Incident | Mop End Farm 🚒

Today at 18:00, on this occasion our Fire Appliance was mobilised back to Mop End Farm to relieve the crew already in attendance at the ongoing fire at Mop End Farm!

With hotspots still present within the large waste pile, our crew continue working to monitor conditions and tackle areas of fire to ensure it remained under control. Incidents like these can take many hours and days, and crew relief is an important part of maintaining safe and effective operations.

A great team effort by everyone involved throughout the incident.
