TwitterOn 1 April 2025 responsibility for fire and rescue transferred from the Home Office to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
This information covers fires, false alarms and other incidents attended by fire crews, and the statistics include the numbers of incidents, fires, fatalities and casualties as well as information on response times to fires. The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) also collect information on the workforce, fire prevention work, health and safety and firefighter pensions. All data tables on fire statistics are below.
MHCLG has responsibility for fire services in England. The vast majority of data tables produced by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government are for England but some (0101, 0103, 0201, 0501, 1401) tables are for Great Britain split by nation. In the past the Department for Communities and Local Government (who previously had responsibility for fire services in England) produced data tables for Great Britain and at times the UK. Similar information for devolved administrations are available at https://www.firescotland.gov.uk/about/statistics/">Scotland: Fire and Rescue Statistics, https://statswales.gov.wales/Catalogue/Community-Safety-and-Social-Inclusion/Community-Safety">Wales: Community safety and https://www.nifrs.org/home/about-us/publications/">Northern Ireland: Fire and Rescue Statistics.

TwitterThere were 309 fire-related fatalities in Great Britain in the 2023/24 reporting year, a decline on the previous reporting year when there were 323. In the early 2000s, the annual number of fire fatalities was consistently over 500, with numbers gradually falling throughout that decade. In 2011/12 the number of fatalities related to fire fell below 400 for the first time, and has remained below 400 since that point. Incidents rise as workforce shrinks Although there has been a net decrease in the number of incidents attended by fire and rescue services since the early 2010s, the current trend from 2014/15 onwards has been one of increase. In 2022/23, there were 759,456 incidents attended by the fire service, which was the most in a reporting year since 2010/11. Like many other public services, the fire service cut significant numbers of staff during the 2010s, with the number of fire and rescue workers in England falling by around 10,000 between 2008 and 2018. In a similar time period, expenditure on fire-protection services in the UK was cut from 3.11 billion in 2009/10, to just 2.72 billion in 2018/19. Workplace fatalities also declining The fall in fire-related fatalities since the 1980s is evidence that the UK has become an increasingly safe society in recent decades. The significant fall in workplace deaths is also evidence of this, with fatal injuries at work declining from 651 in 1974 to just 138 in 2023/24. Injuries to workers have also fallen, with incidents almost halving between 2000/01 and 2023/24. The large shift from more dangerous jobs in manufacturing, production, and agriculture to service-orientated roles also certainly play a role in this decline as well.

Home Fire Sprinklers Market Size 2024-2028
The home fire sprinklers market size is forecast to increase by USD 988.8 million at a CAGR of 10.9% between 2023 and 2028. The market is witnessing significant growth due to the increasing demand for enhanced fire safety systems in residential buildings. Factors such as urbanization and infrastructure development in developing countries, as well as mergers and acquisitions in the industry, are driving market expansion. However, the high initial costs of installing home fire sprinkler systems remain a challenge. To address this, innovative solutions like flexible fire sprinklers and the integration of technologies such as motion sensors and infrared surveillance are gaining popularity. These advancements offer improved automation and accuracy, making them suitable for high-risk industries like oil and gas, mining, and petrochemical. Indoor fire sprinklers are also becoming increasingly important as fire hazards are not limited to industrial settings. Overall, the market is poised for continued growth as safety concerns become a top priority.
What will be the Size of the Market During the Forecast Period?
Request Free Sample
The market has gained significant traction in recent years due to the increasing focus on fire safety in both residential and commercial sectors. Fire sprinkler systems play a crucial role in mitigating the risk of fire-related incidents and ensuring public safety. Fire sprinklers are essential components of fire protection systems, designed to detect and suppress fires in their early stages. These systems are installed in various types of buildings, including commercial structures, residential dwellings, industrial facilities, infrastructure projects, and more. The importance of fire safety in residential buildings cannot be overstated.
Also, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), home fires cause an average of three deaths and 16 injuries per day in the United States. Fire sprinklers significantly reduce the risk of fatalities and injuries by providing a rapid and effective response to fires. The integration of advanced technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI), has led to the development of smart fire detection and suppression systems. These systems utilize smart sensors, motion detectors, infrared surveillance, and other advanced technologies to detect fires and initiate the sprinkler response. Government regulations and initiatives, such as the Green Deal Initiative and the push for energy-efficient buildings, have further fueled the demand for cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing fire suppression systems.
Moreover, these systems not only provide essential fire safety features but also contribute to the overall infrastructure and design of the building. Construction requirements for new residential buildings increasingly mandate the installation of fire sprinkler systems. Insurance benefits, such as lower premiums and coverage for fire damage, also incentivize homeowners to invest in these systems. The pipe infrastructure for fire sprinklers is a critical aspect of their installation and maintenance. Proper design, installation, and regular inspections ensure the effective functioning of the system and minimize the risk of false alarms or malfunctions. In conclusion, the market is experiencing steady growth due to the increasing focus on fire safety, the integration of advanced technologies, and regulatory requirements. These systems provide a cost-effective, reliable, and aesthetically pleasing solution for mitigating the risk of home fires and ensuring public safety.

The deluge fire sprinkler systems segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. Deluge fire sprinkler systems represent a specialized fire protection solution, particularly effective in high-risk environments where swift fire suppression is essential. Unlike traditional wet pipe systems, deluge systems utilize open sprinkler heads, which are linked to an unpressurized dry pipe. Upon activation, a deluge valve releases a substantial volume of water from all sprinkler heads concurrently, making it highly efficient in suppressing fast-spreading fires. These sy
