As Bonfire Night approaches, Cleveland Fire Brigade is anticipating a busy period marked by increased callouts, deliberate fires, and alarming levels of violence against staff. To ensure everyone can enjoy the festivities safely, we urge our communities to celebrate responsibly and attend organised firework displays where they can. 

At the Executive Committee meeting which took place on Tuesday 21^st May, the Cleveland Fire Authority conditionally appointed Peter Rickard as Chief Fire Officer for Cleveland Fire Brigade.

With the cost-of-living crisis continuing and winter soon upon us, Cleveland Fire Brigade is launching its 15^th year of its award-winning Stay Safe and Warm Campaign to help residents stay safe and warm during the colder months.

Cleveland Fire Authority is urging other retailers to follow Sainsbury’s lead and ban the sale of fireworks.
