SFRS Local Fire and Rescue Plans

Overview

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) invites you to share your views on the draft Local Fire and Rescue Plan for your local authority area.

Local Plans set out how we will work to keep people safe in your community over the coming years, based on the specific risks and needs in your local authority area.

They outline:

• The key risks and challenges facing local communities
• Our priorities for prevention, protection and emergency response
• How we will work with partners to improve safety outcomes for everyone

Your feedback is important and will help ensure the Plan reflects local priorities, concerns and opportunities.

We are particularly interested in your views on whether we have:

• Identified the right priorities
• Focused on the areas that will make the biggest difference
• Reflected the needs of your community

The results of this consultation will be used to inform the final version of the Plan, and we will publish a summary of what we hear, including how feedback has shaped our approach.

What happens next

Once the consultation period has closed, all responses will be reviewed and analysed. Feedback received will be considered alongside other evidence, relevant policies and statutory requirements to help inform the development of the final Local Plan. A summary of the consultation findings and how feedback has been taken into account will be published in due course.
