Outdoor blazes increasing pressure on fire crews
Sunderland Echo
|November 14, 2025
Firefighters in the North East were called out to significantly more fires last year, new figures show.
-
Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government data shows emergency crews in Tyne and Wear attended 8,130 fires in the year to June - up 37% from 5,939 the previous year.
That included eight fatalities.
The call outs were among 165,697 fires in England - a 28% jump.
The year-on-year increase was mainly driven by a 52% rise in outdoor fires.
