P-04-596 Save Porth Fire Station - SECONDS COST LIVES!

We call on the National Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh Government to review the proposal to close Porth fire station leaving the communities of Porth 10 - 15 minutes away from the nearest fire engine located at either Tonypandy or Treforest.

 

Due to the public sector cuts and the fire review cover being carried out, South Wales Fire and Rescue Service has made a proposal to permanently close Porth fire station. This will leave no fire cover within the Porth community
