The priorities agreed encompass the inputs of those stakeholders and are now brought together as a coherent and ambitious plan for the AFSA and the fire service. The AFSA is hugely dependent on a wide range of people and organisations to fulfil our mandate and these relationships will also be key in our ability to grow and support fire and rescue service over the next three years. Our volunteer staff, along with partners such as the Home Office, NFCC, FBU, Women in the fire service, local and national government, are all critical to the delivery of the objectives in this strategic plan. This strategic plan provides a route forward, but it is vital that we work hard in the next three years to ensure we build on a track record of developmental achievements to act as a springboard for the AFSA and the fire service well into the future. |
