SURREY FIRE AND RESCUE SERVICE TAKING EMERGENCY CALLS FOR BOTH WEST SUSSEX AND SURREY

Surrey Fire and Rescue Service have begun taking emergency calls for both West Sussex and Surrey. 

Control Operators will dispatch firefighters and fire engines from West Sussex to emergencies in their county from the joint control room. The arrangement is to increase staffing numbers and to help with savings.

 It will not affect the level of service provided to anyone calling 999.
