Fire service issues Nottinghamshire major incident update after help from crews from 4 countiesNottinghamshire Fire and Rescue had been operating with 'very limited resources'View Image Scorched heathland at Strawberry Hill Heath, Mansfield (Image: Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service)Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue has stood down a major incident it declared amid a period of "sustained, increased demand" across the county. ‌The fire service declared the incident at around 1.30pm on Sunday (August 9) as it tackled serious incidents including a large forest fire at Sherwood Pines. ‌Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue said at the time that the major incident had been declared due to the "cumulative impact of multiple incidents placing significant pressure on operational resources, rather than a single incident in isolation." ‌The service was said to be "operating with very limited resources and reduced pump availability" and that its response times would be affected. The fire service then confirmed late on Monday (August 10) that it had rescinded the major incident after fire services from four nearby counties helped Nottinghamshire through the volume of incidents.
