Gerrards Cross Fire Station operates 24/7, 365 days a year, with a team of 12 wholetime firefighters providing round-the-clock emergency response. The station’s response area includes a range of potential risk sites, such as Pinewood Studios, Iver Water Treatment Works, Martin Baker Ltd (aircraft ejection seats), the World Evangelical Centre, Wexham Park Hospital, Robert Bosch, and key motorway networks.

Stoke Common has long presented challenges for Buckinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service, with its deep-seated heath fires sometimes taking several days to fully extinguish.

Notable incidents attended by the station include fires at Pinewood Studios in 1984 and 2006, as well as the Windsor Castle fire in 1992. Over the years, the station has also been involved in various media projects, including the 1994 children’s publication Firefighters – a first word and pictures book and the 1995 documentary Blues and Twos, which followed crews on calls for a month.

Gerrards Cross Fire Station continues to focus on both operational training and community engagement. Ongoing training ensures firefighters develop the skills required to meet modern demands, while fire prevention remains a key priority. Community education initiatives include a Key Stage 3 fire awareness programme for 11- to 14-year-olds and Home Fire Safety Visits, with a particular focus on supporting vulnerable groups and those most at risk from fire-related incidents
