HELPING HAND FOR CREWS AT PORT HILL BLAZE

Erika from Somerfield

Our amazing firefighters, police and other officials are working long hours to try and contain the blaze. For those of you at home feeling helpless and wanting to contribute, baking or meals that don't need to be hot to eat would be much appreciated for the crew on the ground.
Let's keep their tummies full while they're away from their families.
Thank you!!

Delivery Details 📦
Lincoln Fire Brigade (1 James Street, Lincoln).
Deliveries taken all night and day!
Someone should be there full time but if not leave out front of station away from the big engine doors on the grass to the right.
Food will be transported from this location to cordon by an official, please do not transport direct to the cordon as need to keep roads clear for emergency services.
All food will be shared with entire ground crew, firefighters, police, ambulance etc.

Thank you so much everyone, your support has been amazing!!

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
