The London Fire Brigade attends a range of non-fire incidents (which we call 'special services'). These 'special services' include assistance to animals that may be trapped or in distress. We routinely get asked for information about the number of such incident attended by the London Fire Brigade and this data is published on the London Datastore to assist those who require it. The data is provided from January 2009 and isupdated monthly. A range of information is supplied for each incident including some location information (postcode, borough, ward), as well as the data/time of the incidents. We do not routinely record data about animal deaths or injuries. Please note that any cost included is a notional cost calculated based on the length of time rounded up to the nearest hour spent by Pump, Aerial and FRU appliances at the incident and charged at the current Brigade hourly rate. The London Fire Commissioner is the fire and rescue authority for London and runs the London Fire Brigade.

London Fire Brigade is the busiest fire and rescue service in the country and one of the largest firefighting and rescue organisations in the world. On this page, we publish details of every incident attended by the London Fire Brigade since 1 January 2009. Below is a dashboard that allows you to interact with this data and drill down to Ward or Postcode level. If you have any questions about this tool please email data@london-fire.gov.uk The main dataset on this page (zip file) contains the details of every incident which the LFB attended since 1 January 2009. Information is provided for when and where the incident happened and the type of incident. This is a large data file, suitable for data analysts, and those who have data manipulation tools and experience. There is a smaller dataset which has the incidents attended by LFB in the last three years, which will be easier for those who have more limited data analysis skills and tools. Both datasets are updated every month. Also available are all LFB mobilisation records (for fire engines) to incidents since January 2009. This data about the incidents attended by the London Fire Brigade includes the fire station area where the incident happened; the fire station area is currently used for mobilising and other administrative purposes. On 9 January 2014, ten London fire stations were closed as part of the Authority’s Fifth London Safety Plan (LSP5), and fire station areas were changed to reflect these closures with the station areas of closed stations being distributed to adjacent fire station areas. To provide consistent incident data, stations grounds have been changed for all incidents in this data set and reflect the station areas in use since 9 January 2014.
