Advert one - Heart monitor

Attacks on firefighters are becoming far too common.

Sound of youths shouting, muted fire engine siren

Last year there were 260 reported attacks in Greater Manchester.  This is unacceptable and it’s got to stop.

The consequences of these attacks could be devastating.   We can’t save lives when we’re under attack and we may be trying to save the lives of people you know and love.

This Bonfire Night protect our firefighters and help Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service keep everyone safe. If you have any information about attacks on the Fire & Rescue Service call Crimestoppers anonymously now on 0800 555 111.

Sound of a fire, youths shouting and muted fire engine.

Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Services are trying to attend a fire at 31 Manchester Road but they are being held up by members of the public. Last year, there were 450 attacks on Greater Manchester firefighters. This has to stop. We can't save lives when we're under attack. What if it was your family we were trying to get to.

Sound of fireworks
