About Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service
Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service covers an area of approximately 500 square miles and a culturally diverse population of 2.8 million people.
With an international airport serving over 200 destinations, a major motorway network plus over 200 train and tram stations Greater Manchester County presents some of the most operationally varied challenges you will find. From modern inner-city developments to traditional mill towns, Greater Manchester is made up of ten very different districts.
Our vision is to make Greater Manchester a safer place by being a modern, community focused and influential Fire and Rescue Service.
We aim to provide the best emergency response we can to our communities – this is our primary function, but our role is much broader than this. We have focused on prevention and protection work over the last decade to try and stop incidents happening in the first place, improving community outcomes in a variety of ways, educating and developing young people and making fire station facilities available and more welcoming to the public.
