We have set out plans to prioritise our services in the community over the coming year and we would encourage you to take a look at these plans in detail; the overarching priorities in summary are:
- Reduce the risks to the communities of West Yorkshire.
- Continue to develop ways of working which improve the safety and effectiveness of our firefighters.
- We will invest in information and communication technology, digital and data, to deliver our service in smarter ways.
- Develop, and enable our people to be at their best.
- We will promote environmentally friendly ways of working, reduce waste, and raise awareness amongst staff to both fight climate change and respond more effectively to incidents driven by extreme weather events.
- We will actively look for opportunities to implement learning from the Grenfell Inquiry to improve how we respond to high rise emergencies and other foreseeable risks.
- We will continue working towards delivering a more inclusive workforce, which reflects and serves the needs of the diverse communities of West Yorkshire.
