Our Safety Plan for the next five years

Each fire and rescue service in the UK has an obligation to produce a Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP) which we call our Safety Plan.

This Safety Plan sets out the direction of our fire and rescue service over the next five years. It
provides information on who we are as a service, the risks and challenges we face, the work that
we carry out, and the steps that we take to prevent and respond to emergency situations.

We have listened to our residents, our staff, and our partners to help develop this plan. We’ve also
analysed information about our communities, the incidents we attend, and wider issues that can
impact the Service, such as funding, population growth, and climate change

We recognise that we must continue improving, to keep people as safe as possible and our Safety Plan sets out some steps that we can take to help achieve our objectives, including enhancing our emergency response capabilities, improving community engagement and tailoring how we train our staff.
