West Yorkshire Prepared, coordinates the actions and arrangements between responding services to prepare for and respond to civil emergencies when they occur. We also help people and communities recover after adverse events.

Your Fire and Rescue Service

The Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP) is a three-year strategy aimed at identifying the key risks and challenges facing the communities of West Yorkshire, alongside our strategies to address them.

It includes:

  • A compilation of foreseeable fire and rescue-related hazards.
  • The deployment of resources for prevention, protection, and response measures.
  • Our Service’s priorities, outlining how resources will be allocated to mitigate these risks.
