Fire Plan


Greater Manchester’s first Fire Plan outlines the work GMFRS will undertake to help make our city-region safe. The plan includes six priorities and a number of commitments to residents, businesses and partners across Greater Manchester.

The Plan has been written by Chief Fire Officer (CFO) Dave Russel (external website)Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham, and is overseen by the Deputy Mayor for Safer and Stronger Communities, Kate Green.

In addition to the Fire Plan, Annual Delivery Plans for the Service outline exactly how the commitments in the Fire Plan will be delivered. Together, the two plans fulfil the Service’s statutory duty to produce an Integrated Risk Management Plan.

The animation on this page brings to life our ambitions and core plans for the next few years to make Greater Manchester a better place for our communities.
