The fire and rescue service is changing for the better - better for the communities it serves and better for those working in it.

New policies are being brought in on a national level and this section of the website gives a brief outline of the changes taking place, with details of work being done locally including: Resilience; Fire Control; Firelink; New Dimensions; Search and Rescue; Co-Responding; and Regional Management Boards.

For further accessible information about the future of the fire and rescue service please go to the Fire and Rescue Services Online website at www.frsonline.fire.gov.uk where a detailed overview of the modernisation programme that is now taking place in the fire and rescue service can be found.
