📻Recently I spoke to Craig on High Peak 1 about my campaigning to keep Glossop Tip open.
Firefighters returned to Tintwistle Moor at 7:00am this morning after standing down overnight as daylight faded. Crews from Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service, alongside partner agencies, are now focusing efforts on the south side of the wildfire while continuing to monitor other areas. A huge thank you to all the firefighters, Derby Mountain Rescue Team, and everyone involved in the Peak District Fire Operations Group for their continued hard work and dedication. ⚠️ Please continue to avoid the area while emergency operations are ongoing. The Pennine Way between Crowden and Black Hill remains closed until further notice to allow aerial firefighting to take place safely. Thank you to local residents and visitors for your continued patience and support. 📹 Video footage from this morning, courtesy of Derby Mountain Rescue Team.
The consultation on the proposed closure of Glossop Household Waste Recycling Centre is LIVE. This tip is an important service for our community, and it's vital that local people have their say before any decision is made. Please take just a few minutes today to do these three things: 🗑️ Complete the Derbyshire County Council consultation: https://bit.ly/glossoptipconsultation 📝 Register your vehicle: https://bit.ly/registeryourvehicle ✍️ Sign my petition to save Glossop Tip: https://bit.ly/saveglossoptippetition Every response matters and together we can show how important this facility is to residents across Glossop and the High Peak. Please also share this post so as many people as possible can get involved. #SaveGlossopTip #Glossop #HighPeak
Another great supermarket surgery at Glossop Tesco the other day alongside Cllrs Damien Greenhalgh, Councillor Stewart Gardner and Councillor Barbara Hastings-Asatourian for Whitfield It was great to chat with so many residents and hear their views on the issues that matter most locally. There was plenty of lively discussion about proposed housing developments, the bypass, wildfires, traffic and of course the Reform run county councils’ proposal to close Glossop Tip.
A massive thank you to our Firefighters, Gamekeepers, Mountain Rescue teams, National Park Rangers and all the other organisations that have worked together to get the wildfire on Tintwistle Moor under control. I am incredibly grateful for everything they have done and continue to do. Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service Derby Mountain Rescue TeamGreater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS)
Thank you to all the firefighters, rangers and emergency service personnel who are still working tirelessly to tackle the wildfire on Tintwistle Moor. The A628 is currently closed between the Gun Inn and the Flouch roundabout while crews continue their efforts to contain the blaze. Firefighters from across Derbyshire and Greater Manchester are working alongside the Peak District National Park, RSPB, United Utilities and other partners to protect our precious moorland. If you can see or smell smoke, please keep your windows and doors closed and avoid the area while emergency services remain at work. This fire is a stark reminder of how vulnerable our moorlands are during hot, dry weather. If you're enjoying the countryside this summer, please take care: don't use disposable barbecues, don't light fires, take your litter home and never leave glass bottles behind. Thank you again to everyone involved in responding to this incident and helping keep our communities safe. 📸 Damien Greenhalgh
Yesterday I attended the Ministerial Statement on the Farming Roadmap and the Government's response to the Farming Profitability Review. When I met with local representatives from the NFU earlier this year, they raised concerns about access to the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI), particularly for farmers working on common land across the High Peak. Following those discussions, I have requested a meeting with Rt Hon Emma Reynolds MP to discuss how we can ensure common land farmers are not left behind and can access the support they need through future SFI schemes. Farming is at the heart of our rural communities and local economy. I'll continue working with farmers, the NFU and ministers to make sure the voices of High Peak farmers are heard in Westminster.
I’m saddened to see the wildfire on Tintwistle Moor. High Peak is the most vulnerable constituency to wildfires in the UK, and it’s vital that we all do our part to protect our moorlands, countryside and communities, especially during periods of hot, dry weather like we’re experiencing now. My thanks go to Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service who have worked through the night in challenging conditions to keep people safe. Emergency services are still on scene tackling the blaze this morning. If you can see or smell smoke, keep your windows and doors closed where possible, and avoid the area to allow crews to continue their work safely. As temperatures remain high again today, please take extra care and follow the advice from emergency services. Thank you to everyone who has reported the incident and to our emergency services for their continued efforts. Please stay safe and look out for one another. 📹: Andy Grantham

Please stay away from the area so that the fire service can operate safely 🙏🏼Fire crews returned to the wildfires near to Arnfield Farm and at Tintwistle Moor at 07:00 hours this morning and are actively firefighting with the support of partner agencies.

Eight fire engines are at the scene, and a helicopter is on its way to carry out water drops on hotspots.

Despite clear signs saying nearby paths are closed, people have been seen walking in the area. This is dangerous. Anyone underneath the helicopter could be seriously injured when water drops are carried out.

For safety reasons, we cannot operate the helicopter while people are in the area.

Please do not ignore the closure signs. Stay away from the area so crews can work safely and bring the incident under control. ... See MoreSee Less
