Bedfordshire Fire & Rescue Service’s 2023 Consultation is now open.

Every year, we consult the public on our Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP)  Action Plan and Council Tax proposals. We engage with the local community to seek views on the Service's priorities and proposals and to seek an increase in contributions for funding from council tax.

Our Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP) Annual Action Plan for 2022/23 sets out the current key priorities underpinning our strategic aims, which we propose to focus our efforts on delivering by March 2023. 

Our CRMP fulfils our obligations under the Government’s Fire and Rescue Service National Framework.

We are coming to the end of our current CRMP and we are starting the consultation process for our new CRMP which will be launched in April 2023.

We would really like to hear your views on our future priorities and to find out more about what you value the most from our Service and any concerns you may have about your safety and wellbeing.

Your views will help us to shape our plans and priorities for the future, which will be based on public feedback. We will then go out and consult again on these plans towards the end of this year.

You can respond to our consultation here

The consultation closed on 31 August 2022.
