Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service looks after more than one million people every day, with the aim of making Nottingham city and the county of Nottinghamshire safer places to live, work and visit. A team of over 1,000 people support this work from a variety of locations. Much of our work is focused on preventing accidents and injuries through education and safety intervention. We also work clo

sely with local businesses and landlords to help them meet their statutory fire safety responsibilities towards staff, customers and visitors. The work of our firefighters may seem obvious, but they perform a variety of duties when not responding to emergency calls, such as carrying out home safety checks and business property inspections, giving advice on safety and talking to young people about how to keep themselves, and their families, out of harm’s way. Behind the scenes are the Fire Control operators who are vital to anyone dialling 999 in an emergency and a team of support staff in roles such as human resources, finance, performance monitoring, ICT, estate management, administration and communications. We are run by the Nottinghamshire and City of Nottingham Fire Authority and the local councillors (our Members) who are elected to its various committees.

Earlier this week, our Fire Investigation dogs Ginny and Barney were put through their paces at Nottingham Forest’s City Ground 🐾🐶

The duo carried out specialist training to detect accelerants within a stadium environment, helping ensure they’re ready to respond in complex, real-world settings.

Great work by Ginny, Barney, and their handlers to help keep our communities safe! 👏

Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service has launched a new road safety campaign ahead of the Men’s World Cup, bringing together partners from across the county to encourage everyone to enjoy the tournament safely.

The campaign was officially launched at Nottingham Forest’s City Ground, where partners came together to promote key road safety messages.

Throughout June and July, we’re working with local football clubs including Notts County Football Club, Nottingham Forest and Mansfield Town Football Club alongside licensed venues across the county—including a number of Greene King sites—to help reduce incidents on our roads and keep our communities safe.
