Firefighters will take part in eight consecutive days of strike action between Saturday 9 August and Saturday 16 August 2014.

During this time, Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service will continue to provide an emergency response service, albeit at a reduced level. It is therefore essential that local communities and businesses take extra care and endeavour to prevent emergencies from occurring.
