FLOODING SHOWS THAT FIRE SERVICE CUTS ARE A MISTAKE
We call upon Surrey County Council to halt the plans made earlier this month to cut our fire and rescue services in Spelthorne by half, and instead to invest in our safety by keeping the two fire stations, appliances, crews and staffing levels that we already have.
Why is this important?
The effect of the floods and storms of recent days on Spelthorne have proven to those who live and work here the very real need for our existing fire and rescue services to be maintained. The firefighters in both Staines and Sunbury have been working flat out to provide essential rescue services, as have those from the surrounding boroughs.
