Setting fires deliberately is an offence. If you have any information about deliberate fires, please report it! You can contact the Police online or by calling 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
Deliberate fires take up a large amount of our firefighters’ time. Our crews could be putting out these avoidable and nuisance fires when they should be helping someone whose life may be in danger at a house fire or road traffic collision.
Many fires, including refuse, wheelie bin, and grass fires, are started deliberately. It’s important to report irresponsible behaviour so that fires can be prevented in your community.
If you see any suspicious activity in your area please contact Cheshire Police on their non emergency number 101 - dial 999 in an emergency.
If you have any information that you believe could help officers with an arson investigation and do not feel comfortable speaking to Cheshire Police, you can leave your information anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
If you see any suspicious activity involving vehicles/cars in your area please contact Cheshire Police on their non emergency number 101 (or dial 999 if appropriate) or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
If you do spot a build-up of rubbish, intended to be used as a bonfire, please report it to the local council immediately.
