Members of the public are being asked to take part in a consultation exercise that is looking to support Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service's strategic plan for the next five years.

Earlier this year the Service consulted the public, partners, and employees to understand the needs and expectations of people who live and work in our county. They received over 2,000 responses and used the feedback to help draft their new Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP).

The draft CRMP sets out how they will make Lancashire safer over the next five years (2027 to 2032) based on the greatest risks to the people and communities of Lancashire. It explains the outcomes they want to achieve, the areas they will focus on, and how they will measure success.

This is phase two of their consultation. LFRS wants your views on the community risks identified in their plan and how they intend to prevent and respond to them. Your feedback will be used to shape the final version of the CRMP and how they deliver services in the future.

Take part in the survey at www.lancsfirerescue.org.uk/consultation.

It should take around 10 minutes to complete and closes at 5pm on Friday 9 October 2026.

Further information can be requested by emailing consultation@lancsfirerescue.org.uk.
