Fire statistics published by Department for Communities & Local Government

In summary, the total number of fire fatalities was 4% down from last year, with a decline also in fatalities in accidental dwelling fires.
Fire and Rescue services attended 227,000 fires between April 2011 and March 2010, a 6% decrease in last year’s numbers. The total number of false alarms attended fell by 5%. This is a statistic that needs to be improved even more so.
The increase in non-fatal casualties could be explained in reflection that there was also an increase in casualties who showed no signs of obvious injury, but were advised to attend a precautionary check. The number of non-fatal casualties was up by 17%.
