Nearly 4 million Londoners will see worse first appliance attendance times, while only 1.2 million will see improved times, according to a draft safety plan. Over 1 million living in deprived wards will see response times get worse, though 34k in these wards may see improvements. The plan moves 43 wards outside the 6-minute response target, worsening times for 514,159 people, while only improving times for 31,678 people by moving 3 wards inside the target.

1. 1
Population Impact – 1st
Appliance Attendance Times
Draft 5th
London Safety Plan (LSP5)
Overview:
This brief sets out the impact of the proposed cuts on the
populations, taking into account ward population numbers. It
focuses on the changes to the first appliance attendance time.
Only 3 wards move from outside the target time to
inside while 43 (39 minus the City of London wards)
move from within the 6 minute target time to outside
Nearly 4million Londoners will see their 1st
appliance attendance time worsen, while only
1.2million will see their attendance time improve
Over 1million Londoners living in the most deprived
wards will see their 1st
appliance attendance time
worsen while only 34k who live in these wards will
see an improvement in their attendance times
Wards moving from inside the 6minute target time to
outside the target time compared to those moving from
outside to inside the target time
The draft LSP5 highlights that more Boroughs will now be within
the 6 minute average target time for the 1st
appliance. When this
is looked at a Ward level, only 3 wards move from outside the
target time to inside while 43 (39 minus the City of London
wards) move from within the 6 minute target time to outside.
That is 514,159 Londoners who are now outside the
average target time for the 1st
appliance attendance
compared to only 31,678 who our now within the target
time.
