Fatal Fire Investigation
Fatal Fire Investigation Report of the Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service investigation into the deaths of Firefighters Alan Bannon and James Shears in Flat 72, Shirley Towers, Church Street, Southampton, SO15 5PE, on Tuesday 6 April 2010 Copyright of Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service Copyright of Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service 1 Foreword The primary duty of all fire and rescue services is to save life. In Hampshire this responsibility is central to how we operate such that the people we select and train, the equipment we buy and use, and the procedures we follow are focussed on that defining obligation. This report details the response to a fire which led to the deaths of two of our colleagues. The facts of the report and particularly the actions of all HFRS staff are framed by that duty to save life. On the night of 6 April 2010 many lives of the public were at risk in Shirley Towers, Church Street, Southampton, a 16 storey high rise block of residential flats. The scene faced by fire crews that night was frantic and frightening such that the efforts to tackle this difficult and dangerous fire required the courage, stamina and skill of all those involved. As an organisation we have dedicated considerable resources to this report, both in honour of our colleagues and also in a genuine desire to learn from these events. We have then ensured this learning has been turned into tangible actions in order to improve the way we tackle such incidents. We hope this will assist others, as well as ourselves, in understanding what caused the loss of Alan Bannon and James Shears and to do all we can to prevent such tragedies occurring in the future. -

Our core values are inclusion, integrity, and innovation. Inclusion can only occur when everyone within our community and beyond has the opportunity to belong, to be heard, to be valued. To uphold integrity, it’s critically important that we are trustworthy stewards for the PI community, putting their livelihood first. We will embrace challenges head-on with new solutions and ways to strengthen the PI community through innovation. In addition, we commit to serving our constituents with transparency, trust, and compassion. The Immune Deficiency Foundation is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We are rare and we are powerful. Like the stripes of a zebra, no two people are the same, and at IDF, we celebrate this uniqueness every day. An inclusive, diverse, and fair workplace makes our community more powerful. At IDF, we build communities and programs for people living with PI. It’s through these services, that they can connect with other individuals, families, and healthcare professionals who are living and working with PI. In 2019, we implemented initiatives to foster relationships within the community, and provide rich and accurate information and resources to thousands. We helped advance research and worked collaboratively with expert clinicians from across the country to better understand patient experiences and improve outcomes. All those living with PI continue to rely on IDF for information and support, which is why we’ve made the commitment to ensure a better future for generations to come. -
