This Fire Facts publication - first published in 2018 - provides a range of statistical data about fire deaths in London. It includes a time series of data back to 1966, data for fire deaths by London borough, where people die, what causes the fires where people die, plus ethnicity and gender data about those who die in fires.

London Fire Brigade (LFB) data covering all incidents attended by month back to January 2013, broken down by incident type: All fires attended - broken down by primary* and secondary fires Deliberate fires attended Dwelling & non-dwelling fires attended False alarms attended Road Traffic Accidents attended Vehicle fires attended - broken down by deliberate/accidental/unknown Open space fires attended - broken down by deliberate/accidental/unknown Rubbish fires attended - broken down by deliberate/accidental/unknown Shut-in-lifts attended Special services - non-emergency visits *Primary fires comprise of all fires attended by LFB in buildings, vehicles and outdoor structures, and fires involving casualties, and fires attended by five or more appliances. The statistics include some incidents that are not geo-referenced (with a borough name). Sometimes incidents are geo-coded later, and so the data can change each month, and data for more recent periods must be regarded as provisional. Data are available in raw machine-readable (csv) format.

The London Fire Brigade attend a number of fires each year where the ignition source of the fire is recorded as 'white goods' (e.g. washing machine, dishwasher, refrigerator). This data sets provides details of such fires by London borough and ward location, and the type of white goods concerned as well as the property type where the fire happened. Where known, the brand and model of the white goods item is included, although this is added as free text so there may be errors it spelling, etc. The data is from January 2009 and is updated annually for each calendar year. The LFB 'Total Recalls' campaigns seeks to achieve proper recall arrangements by manufacturers where a faulty product has been identified. You can see more about the LFB Total Recalls campaing on the LFN web site here - http://www.london-fire.gov.uk/total-recalls-white-goods-campaign.asp

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. This table summarises the details of every incident responded to since 2009 (by calendar and financial year). The categories derive from the UK government’s Incident Recording System. For more detail, we also publish all LFB incident records and all LFB mobilisation records (for fire engines) to incidents since January 2009. Please note this data table is for information purposes only and is not a corporate report of performance. We publish corporate performance measured against our indicators and targets here.

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.
