✨Do you have the what3words app?

📍 Have you heard of what3words?

📌 It’s a free app that helps you share your exact location in an emergency.

🧑‍🚒 Recently, firefighters at Cleveland Fire Brigade used what3words to quickly find a fire in a rural area. The emergency call included a what3words location, which meant crews knew exactly where to go.

🚒 Because they had a precise location, they arrived faster and stopped the fire spreading, protecting wildlife, nature, and nearby areas.

How it works:

Every 3 metre square in the world has a unique 3-word address. You can give this to emergency services so they know exactly where you are.

✅ Faster response

✅ More accurate location

✅ Could save lives

💛 Download the what3words app today so if you ever need to call 999, you can tell us exactly where to find you.

🎂 Celebrating Dame Daphne du Maurier!
Born 13 May 1907 – died 19 April 1989

Today we celebrate the birthday of Dame Daphne du Maurier, one of Britain’s most celebrated writers. From the unforgettable Rebecca (1938) to the moody menace of Jamaica Inn (1936) and The Birds (1952), her atmospheric storytelling reshaped modern Gothic fiction and inspired generations of readers and filmmakers.
Awarded Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1969, her legacy continues to fascinate and endure.

📚 Why not mark the occasion by revisiting one of her novels, discovering her short stories, or sharing your favourite du Maurier read in the comments?
