FOI Request 2136

Subject: Amount of Calls Attended by Each Station in 2024

Status: Complete

Date received: April 2025

Question Asked:

I request all call statistics per station for the calendar year 2024 from midnight on the 01st January 2024 to midnight on the 31st December 2024. For example

Chester - 1430

Sandbach - 408

This is to include all standby moves, calls on other station areas, eg if Sandbach were mobilised to Lymm, and all reliefs, co responder calls and calls where they were stood down before arriving.

I Believe the last spreadsheet I was provided was station boundary calls, unless you are implying a full time station such as Lymm only did 130 Calls last year. I would appreciate the full data eg Malpas Station - 72 Calls, Lymm Station - 991 Calls etc

Our Response:

Please find below the number of incidents attended in each Station Area in 2024

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide any further information as all mobilisation data is held at NW Fire Control. NW Fire Control is a public sector company set up exclusively by the Fire Services in the North West to jointly handle all 999 emergency calls and be responsible for mobilising firefighters and fire engines to incidents in Cumbria, Lancashire, Greater Manchester and Cheshire.

If you require further information I have attached the link to the NW Fire Control Freedom of Information page for ease.
