Do you have five minutes this weekend?

Why not use them to help shape the future of your fire and rescue service?

Our Community Risk Management Plan looks at how we can help keep Lancashire safer over the next five years.

We want your views on the risks facing our communities and how we plan to prevent and respond to them.

There's one week left, so grab a cuppa and have your say: www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/LFRScrmp2
Closes at 5pm on Friday 9 October.

What matters most to you when it comes to keeping your community safe?

Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service does much more than respond to fires. We help prevent emergencies, protect people and businesses, and prepare for a wide range of risks across Lancashire.

Our Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP) sets out how we’ll help keep Lancashire safer over the next five years.

Earlier this year, we asked what matters most to our communities, and your feedback helped shape our draft plan.

Now, we want to hear what you think about the risks we’ve identified and how we plan to prevent and respond to them.

Have your say: www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/LFRScrmp2

The survey takes around 5 minutes to complete and closes at 5pm on Friday 9 October 2026.

Cooler temperatures don’t mean the risks have gone away.

The temperature may have dropped, but with little rain, the ground and vegetation remain dry.
If you’re heading outdoors this weekend, take a moment to think about the risks around you.

One spark is all it takes to start a wildfire. Most wildfires are caused by human activity, so leave disposable barbecues at home, take your rubbish with you and never drop ci******es.

And if you’re spending time near water, remember that cold water shock can affect anyone, even strong swimmers. Stick to supervised places to swim and remember if you unexpectedly enter the water.

Look out for yourself, your mates and the places we all enjoy.
Please share this reminder, cooler weather doesn’t mean the risks have disappeared.

Our Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP) explains how we'll help keep Lancashire safer over the next five years.

Earlier this year, we asked our communities, partners and employees what matters most to them. We've used that feedback to develop our draft plan, and now we're inviting your views as part of the second phase of our consultation.

We'd like to hear what you think about the community risks we've identified and how we plan to prevent and respond to them.

End of an Era at Tarleton Fire Station! 🚒

After an incredible 28 years of dedicated service, we are saying a bittersweet farewell to Crew Manager Jamieson “Jamo”.

Having gone through the ranks from Firefighter to Crew Manager, and even a period as Watch Manager of the unit, Jamo has experienced everything the job has to offer!

From all of us on station, thank you for your service, your mentorship, and for always keeping spirits high with stories from the many (often chaotic!) experiences from over nearly three decades on the run. You’ve earned every bit of your retirement!

Please join us in the comments below to wish Jamo a very happy and well-deserved retirement! 👏

Time is running out to share your views.

Our survey on the future of Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service closes this Sunday.

We’re currently developing our next Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP), the five-year plan that guides how we keep people across Lancashire safe. At this stage, there are no proposed changes; we’re simply asking communities what matters most to them.

Your feedback will help shape how our services are delivered in the years ahead, and we’re keen to hear from as many people as possible before the survey closes.

Take part in our short survey here:

🚨Incidents 14/01/26 & 16/01/26🚨

Tarleton’s crew were mobilised to two chimney fires in our community last week. Thankfully, both were extinguished safely to ensure there was no further damage caused.

On both occasions, the Aerial Ladder Platform (ALP) appliance from our colleagues at Preston Fire Station was required to provide access to fully extinguish the fire from above.

A clean chimney is a safe chimney. Regular sweeping helps avoid dangerous buildups and ensures your fire burns safely. Please remember:

• Have your chimney professionally cleaned at least once a year.

• Use the correct fuels. Don’t use household rubbish.

• Keep your fireplace clear and safe.

Following these steps means you can stay safe when enjoying the warmth of your fireplace this winter🔥

We’re planning for the future of our services and your views matter.

Our Community Risk Management Plan is a five-year plan that outlines how we will help keep people in Lancashire safe. To shape our next plan, we’re inviting residents, businesses and communities to tell us what’s most important to them.

Your feedback will help guide how our services are delivered in the years ahead, with a further, more detailed consultation planned later in 2026.

Tarleton’s crew were recently involved in a training exercise in Blackpool, specifically focussed on Road Traffic Collisions (RTC). We were joined by crews from Hornby Fire Station, Padiham Fire Station, South Shore Fire Station, and Blackpool Fire Station. 🚒

This area exercise was organised to provide an opportunity for our crew to demonstrate their knowledge on how to respond to an RTC. It also allowed the crew to get valuable practice handling tools, stabilising vehicles, casualty care, and exercising incident command skills. 🚗

The simulation required crews to work together in unison to complete the task of rescuing the casualties safely and effectively, whilst also maintaining a safe working environment. 🤝

Winter weather presents significant hazards that make road safety an essential priority. Road users must anticipate these conditions to minimise the risks of such accidents taking place. Remember to check your tyres, leave sufficient space from the vehicle ahead, and slow down to suit the conditions (rain, fog, icy roads) ☔️🌨️
