A consultation exercise was conducted on the Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service (WFRS) Integrated Risk Management Plan (IRMP) 2020 – 2025.
The feedback from the consultation was analysed and the report was considered and approved by Warwickshire County Council at their meeting on March 16 2021.
There was a total of 163 respondents to the survey.
Overall, the majority of the respondents agreed with the proposals and felt they were important.
After considering the feedback received that showed that the majority of the respondents agreed with the proposals and felt they were important, the Chief Fire Officer considers that the overarching proposals contained within the IRMP should remain unchanged and form the vision for the IRMP over the next five years.
Following consideration of the consultation report, the Council approved the IRMP 2020-2025 at their March 2021 meeting. Please click on this link for further information about this meeting including a webcast, minutes and copies of all documents (including copies of the consultation report).
The IRMP and its proposals will serve as the strategic framework for the delivery of all prevention, protection, and response activity over the next five years.
The first IRMP annual action plan will build on the IRMP proposals and will be considered for approval by Cabinet in June 2021.
The feedback from this consultation was analysed and a report was considered by Cabinet on Feb 11 2021, and will be considered by Resources and Fire & Rescue Overview and Scrutiny Committee (OSC) at their meeting on March 9 2021. The final decision on the outcome of the consultation and the approval of the IRMP will be taken by Warwickshire County Council at their meeting on March 16 2021.

Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service’s (WFRS) Integrated Risk Management Plan (IRMP) 2020 – 2025, sets out the Fire Authority’s vision and priorities for the next five years.
The IRMP 2020 – 2025 Summary document and accompanying video provide more information for you to consider.
WFRS is seeking your views on our proposals, as outlined in our IRMP 2020 – 2025 Summary document, for delivering our services to ensure we support Warwickshire County Council’s priority outcome ‘Warwickshire’s communities and individuals are supported, to be safe, healthy and independent’.
The IRMP 2020 – 2025 consists of several components which are co-ordinated and reviewed and will continue to evolve and adapt to address and mitigate national and local community risks. (Refer to the list of supporting documents below for more information).
We have analysed and assessed all the information available and have developed the five key proposals shown below, which we believe we should focus on over the next five years:
The County will see the make-up of its population change and we need to be ready to respond to the changes in demand for our services. We need to make sure we can make people as safe and as well as they can be and make sure every community contact counts. We will therefore continue to work with partners in health and social care as well as other emergency services ‘To make Warwickshire the best it can be, sustainable now and for future generations’.
