Large animal rescue
Dear Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service,
I wish to make an FOI request on how many large animal rescues your organisation has carried out in the last financial year, how much these cost and how much it costs to keep the service running.
Yours faithfully,
SabinaDunkling
Dear Sabina
Thank you for your enquiry with regard to large animal rescues.
Please find attached a spreadsheet that shows the number of animal rescues
in the last financial year.
An indicative cost for each rescue can be calculated using our Special
Services Charges (please see document attached). The number of appliances
attending each incident and the length of time each incident took has also
been included within the spreadsheet.
In the financial year 2014/15 Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service spent
£638 on animal rescue equipment. No funding is provided by Central
Government or local charities and these costs are met through efficiency
savings across the operational budget.
All training for Animal Rescue during 2014/15 was delivered in house.
Yours sincerely
Louise Goodhead
Planning and Programmes Officer
