Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue
Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue provides essential services through their Safe and Well Checks department. You can report fires or emergencies 24/7 by providing the location and nature of the incident. For non-emergency services, such as community safety advice and fire prevention visits, calls are accepted during business hours. Common reasons for calling include arranging fire safety checks, seeking fire prevention advice, and making general enquiries about services and policies. While emergency calls are prioritized, non-emergency calls may experience longer wait times during peak periods or major incidents. It's advisable to call during off-peak hours for quicker service.
