A burns victim has thanked emergency service workers for helping save his life.

Derick, who was 81-years-old at the time, was at his daughter’s home near Sherwood Forest, on 7 May 2022, when he was involved in a bonfire incident and needed urgent help.

Thanks to the quick response of Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service, East Midlands Ambulance Service, and officers from our road policing unit and response teams, Derick was taken to hospital to be treated for burns to his face and hands.

Now two years later Derick and his family wanted to say a special thank you to everyone who attended and helped them when they needed it most.
