Fire Gateway is a web portal which has
been developed to enable you to access, and interact with, an array
of fire-related services online.
It has been funded by Communities and Local Government and
developed with the involvement of English Fire and Rescue
Services.
As well as providing easy online links to local Fire and Rescue
Services, the Fire Gateway also has a wide range of fire-related
advice and links to useful sites.
You can complete an online interactive questionnaire about
fire safety in your home to help you plan how to reduce the risk of
fire occurring. You can also conduct an online self assessment to
discover if you have the attributes required to become a
fire-fighter.
Following the implementation of the
Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order, 2005 , operators of
commercial and public premises can go online to complete self
assessments to help them address their legal obligations to provide
a safe place of work.
You can also use Fire Gateway to submit requests for
services, such as home fire safety visits and support for dealing
with young fire setters, direct to your local Fire and Rescue
Service.
Care professionals and people with elderly relatives can
make applications on behalf of others, thereby assisting fire and
rescue services in addressing the needs of those who are most at
risk from fire.
Should you need more information, the site gives you access to
government directories, as well as links to relevant third parties
who can offer additional trusted advice and
support. |
