A budgie and dog were also taken to safety but didn't require oxygen therapy.
We are trialling pet oxygen masks, which are on 9 fire appliances, in two districts. We are working with VillageVets to introduce them across the city.

If you subscribe to Microsoft 365 Personal, the 40% price increase is a con to upsell you AI. Your old plan and price is still there called "Classic" - but only if you try to cancel.
