Fire Brigades Union strike action tomorrow

A message from the Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service:

As you may be aware, the Fire Brigades Union (FBU) has announced that further strike action will take place From 10am to 5pm on Saturday 21 June (7 hours)

Although RBFRS has contingency plans in place, during any period of industrial action we will have significantly fewer resources. We will therefore be prioritising ‘life critical’ incidents, such as house fires and road traffic collisions where people are trapped.

We therefore need you to take extra care. 

RBFRS will still be responding to 999 calls but we are asking people to reduce demand by calling us only in a genuine emergency.

For information and advice, please see the RBFRS website at http://www.rbfrs.co.uk/
