Grampian Fire & Rescue Service
Grampian Fire and Rescue Service serves communities in the North-East of Scotland
in the Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray Council areas. The Service has full-time
fire stations in Aberdeen, Peterhead and Elgin and retained fire stations in a further
thirty-three towns in the area.
We employ more than nine hundred people in emergency operations, community safety
and business support roles.
The Service protects a number of significant risks including a busy industrial harbour,
major oil and gas terminals and the most frequently used heliport in the country.
In addition there is the biggest single site hospital in Europe, two operational
RAF bases, two prisons and the Royal Residence at Balmoral Castle.
We also provide fire safety information to businesses and to local residents with
home fire safety visits.
Grampian Fire and Rescue Service has initiated a number of safety programmes in
partnership with Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray Councils, Grampian Police
and other safety and health related agencies. The Service is taking a prominent
role in developing fire safety initiatives.
