Welcome to the May edition of the Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service e-Newsletter.


Want to know if your home is fire-safe?

Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service has launched its first ever app, called Risk Rater, which allows residents to risk assess their homes.

The app includes a short questionnaire to assess fire safety in the home, and then the user receives a personalised fire safety plan - with advice on how to prevent fires in their home.

The Risk Rater app can be downloaded free from the Google Play Store or the App Store, or you can visit our website to complete the questionnaire online.

Boat safety advice

The number of boat fires on our coastal and inland waters is relatively low. However, when they do occur, they quite often have devastating consequences.

Due to the remote location of moorings, the fire and rescue service can experience difficulties in gaining access to an incident. On many occasions, these incidents result in the total destruction of the boat and to surrounding property.

Please use the link below to view some simple advice to ensure your boating activities are safe and enjoyable.

Caravan and camping safety advice

Holiday season is upon us and many people will be getting ready to take out their caravans or camping equipment.  Make sure your holidays are full of fun and not ruined by poor preparation.

Biker Down courses

If you were the first on the scene of an collision involving a biker, would you know what to do? Would you know who is most at risk, how to protect the area or whether you should remove the helmet of a downed rider?

Actions taken in the first few moments after a collision can be crucial in minimising injuries and can make a real difference to the lives of those involved, but there can be some uncertainty about what to do in these situations.

We are holding a number of Biker Down training courses this year. For dates and details please visit our website.
