Fire Service

The Fire Service is a responsible authority within local Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships. The roles that the Service take on vary from one Partnership to another but most often include arson reduction and emergency planning (where this is featured within the duties of the CDRP).

There are important additional areas of work which Fire Services can contribute to - most notably tackling criminal damage (see below) and other forms of environmental crime and the development of young peoples civic responsibility programmes - such as the LIFE Project.
