Have your say on the draft Community Risk Management Plan 2024-28

Cheshire Fire & Rescue Service would like to hear people’s views on their draft plan. Full details can be found by clicking here. See more details from their page below:

“Our vision is a Cheshire where there are no deaths, injuries or damage from fires or other emergencies.”

To achieve this, we need a plan for addressing the ever-changing risks in our communities now and in the future. This strategy is called a Community Risk Management Plan (or CRMP, for short), which all fire and rescue authorities have to produce regularly.

Our next CRMP is due to be published in April 2024. It will set the blueprint for how our Service will develop, and continue to prevent and respond to emergencies, over the next four years.

Under the Fire and Rescue National Framework for England, a CRMP should identify risks facing the community and describe how a fire and rescue authority will address those risks, and prevent and respond to fires and other emergencies. In short, it serves as our organisational plan for the future.

A CRMP should have a lifespan of at least three years and be produced in consultation with the public, fire and rescue staff, local partners and representative bodies.

As part of the proposal process we want to hear people’s views on our draft plan. Full details on how to do this can be found below.
