Over the summer Conor met with the Dorset and Wiltshire Chief Fire Officer at his invitation to be briefed on the local response to Grenfell Tower fire and the safety tests that have been undertaken in Bournemouth and Poole. He was also briefed on the working of the merger of Dorset and Wiltshire Fire Services as well as talking about future plans and challenges they have. At the end of the meeting Ben presented Conor with the shield of the new fire service.
