Incident Reports
We share information on our website about the incidents we attend in a couple of different ways:
- We sometimes share details of the incident and what's happened on our incident pages.
- We also publish figures for the numbers of incidents we've attended.
You can find our full incident data on our transparency website.
If you would like to request an extract from a fire report, please contact
