Fire service research, the fitting-in website where academia and the fire service can meet - a resource for research and consultancy for the fire and rescue service and firefighters - Organised by Dr Dave Baigent this site provides a place to share your own research, to look at what others have written about the fire service and to see our commercial offerings.
Academics are not the experts,
fire and rescue service managers are the experts.
What fitting-in can do is help managers to use their expertise.
