Emergency advice for residents

Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service fire engine

Emergencies usually occur with little or no warning and can happen at any time and anywhere. The weather can be a main cause of emergency problems that affect your home and the wider community. They can affect basic services and can cause damage to your home, such as damaging roof tiles and localised flooding.

If a major incident occurs the first people to become aware of it will usually be the 'blue light' emergency services. These are Warwickshire PoliceWarwickshire Fire and Rescue Service, and West Midlands Ambulance Service.
