COVID-19
Info-board
This page contains member information related to issues connected with the Coronavirus. As this situation develops we will add further information so please check this page regularly.
Also if you are looking for specific advice that is not contained on this page please contact FRSA HQ directly.
As well as advice/guidance from the FRSA we have also included information from third-parties that is endorsed by the FRSA as we believe it would not be helpful to duplicate advice.
Local FRS
There is likely to be subtle differences in the way each local FRS continues to operate/function, so we are keeping a central record for each FRS and the publications that are being issued relating to their guidance and practices. This library is available to our network of officials across the UK and it is our intention to promote good practice locally.
Separately can we express our gratitude to all frontline personnel and control staff who are facing difficult and uncertain times professionally while still having to operate as normal as possible.
FRSA HQ and our local network of officials will be operating a normal service and will be available to our members 24/7.
