SAVED! Offerton Fire Station Night & Weekend Crews
Following months of campaigning and consultation, Paul Athans and William Wragg MP are delighted to announce that Offerton Fire Station will continue to be crewed 24/7. Labour-run Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service were threatening to scrap day and weekend manning of the fire station - leading to longer response times and undermining resident's safety.
Paul Athans said, "This is a great day for Offerton and the wider community. Residents can now sleep soundly knowing that their local fire station will be manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Having spoken with many residents in the last few months and heard the genuine concern over these plans, I have been working alongside William Wragg MP to make sure Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service listens to local people."
"As your next MP, I will always fight for the safety of local residents. Today has shown what we can achieve by working together."
