Our Vision

The criteria for developing our priorities is set out within Our Plan. To find this document, along with our other Corporate Documents, click here

  • Responding to Emergency Incidents - How we react when you are in trouble
  • Community Education and Preventing Incidents - How we protect you at home, at work or at leisure
  • Developing Fire and Rescue Service Staff - How we train and support our staff to reach their full potential
  • Effective and Efficient Management - How we organise ourselves to give you a value-for-money service
  • Good Corporate Governance - How we gain your trust

They help us to focus on achieving our Vision of: “Making Our Communities Safer” and are articulated in our mission statement: “We aim to make our communities safer by preventing fires and accidents, protecting people and property and responding appropriately and quickly.”

Given the nature of our service, we are clear that its not just what we do but the way that we do it. We have therefore adopted a set of values for the organisation to guide our staff in their approach to their work. To view these, click here
