Are you interested in fire safety? Would you like to help improve the way the London Fire Brigade engages with local communities?
London Fire Brigade is looking to launch a number of local community forums to help make sure London’s communities are at the heart of everything we do.
We are looking for members of the community from across London to help us design the processes and future model for these new local community forums.
We would like to hear from you if you:
- Are interested in fire safety
- Want to help shape the way we engage with local communities in the future
- Can share your ideas at meetings and take part in a small amount of project work
- Are passionate about speaking up for seldom heard communities
- Want to help design a local forum model which represents all Londoners.
The London Fire Brigade currently has a central community forum that meets monthly to help shape our services. We want to develop local forums to help shape our services at a local level and to do this we are setting up a Steering Group to design the future model for local community forums.
The Steering Group will meet weekly for 11, two-hour sessions at London Fire Brigade Headquarters in Southwark to co-design the processes and future model of local forums. The project will run from September to November 2024 . We can reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for attending meetings. All participants will receive a certificate of achievement recognising their contribution to the project.
If you are interested, please contact Wendy Bohan, Community Engagement Team, on 07395 369 268 or email community.engagement@london-fire.gov.uk by 16/08/24 for an initial chat.
