Thank You!

Date: 7th September 2017
From the heat of gorse fires in May and bonfires in July to the flooding in late August, I am proud to say that through it all Northern Ireland Fire & Rescue Service was there to respond and to help ‘Protect Our Community’. Whether you are a Firefighter, an Officer, Regional Control Centre or Support Staff every day we work together, as a team, to Protect Our Community. Thank you, to each and every one of you, for your contribution and for serving NIFRS with such distinction over recent months.

I am pleased to share details about the significant progress made on two of our major capital projects – the Logistics Support Centre at Boucher Crescent, Belfast and our new Learning & Development Centre at Desertcreat.
Both projects have taken several years to get to this stage but we are finally seeing real progress being made on these much needed new facilities for our organisation.
Why Middle Managers Matter!
Category: Management
Date: 9th March 2017
Recently I’ve been struck by the unique role of middle managers.
Often overlooked, they find themselves tasked with juggling the top team’s hopes and aspirations with the realities of meeting the needs of frontline staff. It’s not an easy position to hold but I believe, and research has shown, that middle managers play a vital role in helping an organisation like ours reach its full potential.
