Appliances from Aylesbury attend incidents as far apart as the county boundaries with Bedfordshire in the east to Oxfordshire in the west. They also attend large incidents further afield as necessary.
Drill Nights
Drill nights for Aylesbury Fire Station’s On-Call firefighters are held on Mondays, starting at 7pm.
Aylesbury Fire Station opened in Stocklake in April 2005, and replaced the previous facility in Cambridge Street, which was in use for more than 30 years.
In March 2009, Aylesbury Fire Station became the permanent new home of Buckinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service’s Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) crews. The USAR capability is one of 20 in the country and is a key part of the Government’s investment to enhance the country’s resilience and capability to respond to disruptive challenges, manage major national incidents and more local USAR emergencies.
The area is predominantly rural, with small clusters of industry and some very historic and valuable properties included, such as Waddesdon Manor. The road network is substantial and the station attends numerous road traffic collisions each year, these forming a large proportion of the operational response.
Community safety now forms an increasingly large part of our daily routine, and new initiatives are constantly being sought with other agencies to help prevent fires, accidents and other risks to the community.
