Firesetters Scheme With Dorset And Wiltshire Fire & Rescue Service

Are you worried about a child or young person who may be showing a great interest in fire? starting fires, large or small? Or showing evidence of burning items, for example in their bedroom or outside? The Firesetters scheme is not a punishment and should not be viewed as such. The objective is to achieve a ‘fire safe’ person and environment. Talking to a young person early on is vital to stop the fire setting habit as soon as possible. Fire setting is dangerous and we can help to explain the dangers and consequences to the young person in a sensitive and informed manner with appropriate resources. Early intervention can greatly reduce the chances of it happening again.
