Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service’s incident command training suite wins national award

“For our facility to be acknowledged in this way is fantastic as it highlights the excellent work done by our staff who work so hard to create and update scenarios and software for the benefit of not only our operational firefighters but also for external users. It also recognises the vision of Cheshire Fire Authority and the Chief Fire Officer who have fully supported this initiative from its inception.” 

Local Government Chronicle editor Nick Golding said: “It is vital that we celebrate the best of local government, not least as the talent and innovation of council officers and councillors is often not recognised to the extent it should be.

“The recipients of the awards are the people doing the most to improve services at a time resources are constrained.  We should thank them for their great work”.
