Resourcing to Risk is a programme to identify how we can best position our resources to make the biggest difference to the communities we serve. In order to deliver on our Prevention, Protection and Response Strategy (PDF, 3 MB), we must have the right resource, in the right place and at the right time.
From 11 December 2023 to 10 March 2024, we invited views and feedback on the Resourcing to Risk proposal via ask.warwickshire.gov.uk. We are grateful to everyone who completed the survey and took the time to join us at one of the information sessions that were held around Warwickshire at the start of 2024.
As part of the consultation, we received 1,300 survey responses and we have also heard the views of staff, partners, and representative bodies. To carry out a comprehensive analysis of this feedback, we are dedicating the necessary time to carefully review and understand all the input received before also ensuring any recommendations are thoroughly assessed and right for Warwickshire. Once this process is completed, a date will be set for any new proposal to be presented to WCC’s Cabinet, acting as the Fire Authority.
