Frizington Risk Review / Profile This document assesses the specific performance and risk within the fire station area. It provides more defined risk profiling down to Lower Super Output Area (LSOA) level. The risk profiling process by its very nature provides evidence of the fire risk within each geographical LSOA using detailed known risk and demographic information. The risk formula used to inform our fire risk profile was devised following the Intervention Standards Review, full details are available on our website: www.cumbria.gov.uk/fire The review also identifies other significant risks in the area that need consideration so that our resources are appropriately allocated across the county. As well as looking at county wide issues and trends in the main Integrated Risk Management Plan (IRMP), this individual station risk profile considers: • Current resources • Appliance availability • Operational response activity • Fire risk profile • Next nearest supporting appliances • Location specific risks including: heritage risk, environment risk, site specific risks: flooding risks, rurality and resilience risk.
