We recently attended a fire at a property in Hampton Wick. Luckily there were no casualties and the fire was extinguished quickly. Our home fire safety checker is a great tool to help you protect your home, you can find it here:

All our fire engines have been responding to the large substation fire in Hayes that affected Heathrow Airport. Kingston's heavy distribution unit also attended to deliver tonnes of foam that was used to help fight the fire.

We were called to a large fire in a disused building on Richmond Road yesterday afternoon. This was a large incident that required significant resources. Crews worked extremely hard under challenging conditions to bring the fire under control.

Thanks for the message. This was a very protracted and complicated incident that required significant resources. There may be a brigade presence on scene for a few days as we assess the scene.
