Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service (DFRS) has published a document celebrating the Service’s key achievements and data from the last financial year.
Titled 'Our Year 2024/25', it sets out performance, financial position, incident and response data, prevention and protection activity, LGBT+ and Inclusion activity in addition to collaboration successes and the Service’s awards and recognition.
Derbyshire’s Deputy Chief Fire Officer Clive Stanbrook said: “2024/25 was another busy year for Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service, one which saw us rated ‘Good’ in 9 of 11 areas of inspection by His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS), placing us among the top performing fire and rescue services in the country, and achieve the NFCC Excellence in Apprenticeship Support Award.
“Over the year, we responded to 6,596 emergency incidents and carried out 950 fire safety audits, as well as 14,504 safe and well checks to those most vulnerable to the risk of fire within our community. In addition, we made 3,633 adult and children at risk referrals to our partners and delivered 48 FireSAFE interventions to young people identified as being involving in fire play or fire setting.
“This is just a snapshot of the work highlighted in our easy-read infographic ‘Our Year 2024/25’ document which is supported by a video which features employees from across the Service as they come together to tell our story of the last year.
“We are your fire and rescue service, proudly serving you the communities of Derbyshire. I encourage everyone to take a few minutes to view the document and watch the video to better understand the work we do - much of it in collaboration with partners - to Make Derbyshire Safer Together.”
