As part of budget guidance, the Mayor asks that the LFB (London Fire Commissioner) publish financial and performance monitoring. The aim is that this information is available on our external website within 25 working days after each quarter end. This page also includes monthly performance reports for metrics which support the LFB's Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP), in the form of the 'monthly KPI report exception focus' documents. The London Fire Commissioner is the fire and rescue authority for London, and the LFC runs the London Fire Brigade.

The London Fire Brigade (LFB) publishes details of certain senior staff as required by the Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015 (Statutory Instrument 2015/234) as part of its annual accounts: the number of employees whose remuneration in that year was at least £50,000 in brackets of £5,000 details of remuneration and job title of certain senior employees whose salary is at least £50,000, and employees whose salaries are £150,000 or more must also be identified by name. This information is included in the published accounts which are available here for 2018/19 on the LFB website. The 'senior staff' prescribed by the regulations for the Brigade comprise four officers namely: the Director of Corporate Services, the Director (Deputy Commissioner) of Safety and Assurance, and the Director (Deputy Commissioner) of Operations and General Counsel. Under the Local Government Transparency Code 2015, the Brigade must also publish a list of responsibilities (for example, the services and functions they are responsible for, budget held and number of staff) and details of bonuses and ‘benefits-in-kind’, for all senior employees whose salary exceeds £50,000. And, in the interests of transparency, the Brigade publishes details of all staff who are designated as heads of service (assistant directors and assistant commissioners) in addition to the four officers required by the Accounts and Audit Regulations, and this information is available on this page. Details of gifts, hospitality and expenses for senior LFB staff are published quarterly here. Note: For Commissioner/Director roles, the budget and staffing figures have been aggregated from the budgets/staff held by Heads of Service under each Director, so there is some double counting. LFB staff are employed by the London Fire Commissioner who is the fire and rescue authority for London; the London Fire Commissioner is not an employee of the LFB and is employed by the Greater London Authority. Details for LFC are included on this page for completeness.

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.

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 dataset contains the details of every fire engine (pumping appliance) sent to an incident since January 2009. Information is provided for the appliance mobilised, where it was deployed from and the times recorded for arriving at the incident. The main dataset on this page (zip file) contains the details of every fire engine mobilisation to an incident since 1 January 2009. This is a large data file, more suitable for data analysts, and those who have data manipulation tools and experience.

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.

This dataset provides a list of fire safety inspections and visits carried out by the LFB's Inspecting Officers in the last five years. Most inspections relate to advice and enforcement of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The data is updated monthly, one month in arrears. We visit buildings for a range of reasons, including: to provide advice, to audit the fire safety arrangements and to inspect any remedial actions taken. Where we do find deficiencies in fire protection we can resolve these with those responsible for the building using formal and informal enforcement. When it is necessary to take formal enforcement action to improve fire safety arrangements, we publish those details on the LFB website here. For more information about the LFB's fire safety regulatory activities, please see the advice and guidance published on the LFB website here. The London Fire Commissioner (LFC) is the fire and rescue authority for London. The LFC runs the London Fire Brigade.

This dataset is for 2024/25 (April 2024 to March 2025) only. Data for 2023/24 is available here, 2022/23 is available here, 2021/22 is available here, 2020/21 is here, 2019/20 is available here, 2018/19 is available here, 2017/18 is available here, and 2016/17 and earlier years is available here. Payments over £250 made by the London Fire Brigade* as part of the government and Mayor of London's transparency agenda. The Local Government Transparency Code 2015 requires the data to indicate VAT for payments which cannot be recovered; there are no such payments for LFB as all VAT is recoverable. The Local Government Transparency Code also requires a 'merchant category' to be added to payment details. LFB has 'ProClass' data and this is added to published data. Please note that most of LFB suppliers and contractors currently have a ProClass classification but a small number of payments may not have a ‘merchant category’. * The London Fire Commissioner is the fire and rescue authority for London and runs the London Fire Brigade (LFB).

The London Fire Brigade operates a large number of emergency (operational) and non-operational vehicles. There are regular Freedom of Information requests asking for the details of these vehicles and this list is published to largely meet that need. It will be updated annually; usually in the last quarter of the calendar year. From 2020, the list also includes details of appliances removed from service during the year and new appliances coming into service. The London Fire Commissioner is the fire and rescue authority for London, and runs the London Fire Brigade. The format of the fleet list changed in October 2019 (i.e. vehicle registration numbers and vehicle locations removed). This change reflects national security considerations; the format of the list reflects a similar list published by the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). Data for earlier years has been removed..

A live Power BI report that shows an overview of Community Safety metrics per London Borough (including fires as well as special service incidents).
