7. Road Traffic Collisions Road Traffic Collisions (RTCs) account for a high number of casualties every year, with 5 fatal and 57 non-fatal casualties within the reporting year. Of the fatal casualties, this was from 4 separate RTCs, 2 of which within the Strathtay ward, 1 within the Highland ward and 1 RTC resulting in 2 fatal casualties within the Strathallan ward. In relation to the non-fatal casualties requiring hospital treatment for serious / slight injuries; Strathtay, Highland and Strathmore wards had the highest number of RTCs. A multi-agency approach is essential to reduce RTCs and the associated casualties, with the Perth & Kinross Road Safety Partnership working locally to establish reduction priorities and influence the content of the Perth & Kinross Road Safety Plan. 202507/05/25 © Scottish Fire & Rescue ServiceReport generated on Incidents by Ward Strathtay Highland Almond & Earn Kinross-shire Strathallan Strathmore Carse of Gowrie Perth City Centre Blairgowrie & Glens Perth City South Strathearn 18 14 13 13 12 10 9 6 3 3 2 Trend by Quarter (4 years) 10 15 20 25 30 103 Road Traffic Collisions in this period Non-Fatal Casualties 57 Fatal Casualties 5 26 People Rescued by Firefighters Extent of Harm (Non-Fatal) 1 38 First Aid Given at Scene Hospital Slight Injuries 18 Hospital Serious Injuries Property Type Incidents Car 84 Van 7 Multiple Vehicles 5 Motorcycle 2 Bus/coach 1 Caravan on tow 1 Lorry/HGV 1 Motor Home 1 Other 1 2024-25 Incident Type Incidents Vehicle (Non-fire) 101 Fire (Vehicle) 1 Other Non-Fire 1

Operational crews continue to investigate the cause of every UFAS incident to ensure the appropriate level of engagement with the Dutyholder is undertaken when in attendance. Every UFAS incident that the SFRS attends is used as an opportunity to educate the Dutyholder on the impact UFAS has on their businesses, the community and the SFRS. The reduction in UFAS mobilisations within Perth & Kinross has continued to provide opportunities for reinvesting the released capacity into areas that would deliver greater value, such as upskilling, training and further prevention work. 202507/05/25 © Scottish Fire & Rescue ServiceReport generated on Incidents by Ward Perth City Centre Highland Perth City South Strathearn Blairgowrie & Glens Strathallan Strathtay Kinross-shire Strathmore Perth City North Almond & Earn Carse of Gowrie 48 42 30 24 20 20 15 13 11 4 3 1 Trend by Quarter (4 years) 0 100 200 231 Unwanted Fire Alarm Signals in this period 2024-25

10. Community Safety Engagement & Partnership Working 2024-25 Poverty Themed Initiatives / Activities PPPPPPPPPPPPP Warm Space/Social Flock Partnership PPPPPPPPPPPPP Our Community Action Team (CAT) has obtained funding and established the warm space initiative PPPPPPPPPPPPP for the last 2 years at St Ninians Cathedral, which has been a great success at combating loneliness, PPPPPPPPPPPPP isolation and fuel poverty. Attendees were also able to benefit from hot food and drinks. PPPPPPPPPPPPP A clothing rail was also set up at the event with warm jackets provided by Social Flock for those in need, PPPPPPPPPPPPP for free. Social Flock are a charity clothing project based in Perth, who collect donations and make up PPPPPPPPPPPPP clothing packs for adults/children. CAT will be assisting with delivery of back-to-school packs around the PPPPPPPPPPPPP Perth & Kinross area later in the year. Electrical Safety First To help combat fuel poverty, we successfully obtained funding from Electrical Safety First for a second year, which was used to purchase of a stock of electric blankets and strip adaptors to be shared across the area. Electric blankets were distributed third sector partners including Perth & Kinross foodbank. They were also made available at the amongst various warm space initiative highlighted above. Safe electrical use information was distributed with each blanket along with the offer of a HFSV. Scottish Gas Network (SGN) Partnership Our partnership with SGN was recently agreed for a second year. Standalone Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms are provided by SGN for SFRS to offer homeowners if required as part of HFSV, or to distribute at local events, along with additional information to raise awareness of CO risks. This includes a questionnaire to gauge pre/post visit knowledge of CO risks. Foodbank Referrals SFRS are registered as referrers on the P&K Foodbank referral portal allowing us to direct people to additional support when we encounter them during HFSVs or community events. Big Hoose We continue to work with the Big Hoose Charity and can send referrals to help if families that would benefit from certain goods or toys. Perth Community Fire Station Xmas Gift Appeal The station launched its Xmas appeal on the 28th of October with the goal of collecting 500 gifts for local children who might otherwise wake up to little or nothing on Christmas day. Thanks to the incredible generosity of individuals and businesses across Perth & Kinross, we surpassed our target by over 300 gifts, which were then delivered to local charities and families in need. The youngest recipient was just 3 months old and the oldest 97. Almost 40 different businesses supported by donating gifts and setting up collection points in their premises. In addition to the gift donations, a JustGiving campaign raised an impressive £3,450, further enhancing the impact of the initiative. The funds were used to provide gifts and support local charities and care organisations, ensuring that the festive spirit touched as many lives as possible. Santa Drive Thru On the 16th of December, the station at Perth hosted its second Santa Drive Thru. The appliance hall was transformed into a winter wonderland with Santa in attendance along with his elves and other helpers. Over 250 families attended, and 360 certificates were issued to local children, with £500 being raised for the Firefighters Charity. Blairgowrie Community Fire Station also ran their Drive Thru event on the 23rd of December, with over 150 families attending and £850 raised for the Firefighters Charity. PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP Coffee with the Crew / Cop PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP Blairgowrie Community Fire Station facilitated a number of events throughout December and PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP January inviting locals along to the station to meet the local crews and Police teams. The PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP objective of these events is to reduce social isolation, increase signposting of support services PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP from partner/third sector organisations and reduce poverty. Providing warm refreshments and PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP open discussion in an informal, inviting safe space, the initiative helps combat social isolation, PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP fostering a sense of belonging and community cohesion.

10. Community Safety Engagement & Partnership Working 2024-25 Employability Themed Initiatives / Activities Fire Skills Courses Fire Skills courses were delivered in June and December with pupils from Perth Grammar and St Johns Academy attending. As part of the course students were visited by our Local Authority Liaison Officer (LALO) to receive input on completing an application form along with how to prepare for interviews. Students then attended a mock interview with the LALO and the schools Developing the Young Workforce Co-ordinator. Constructive feedback and coaching was given to students as part of developing employability skills as they approach the world of work beyond school. A 5-day course then took place at Perth Community Fire Station, throughout the week students are put through their paces with pump and ladder drills, RTC training, working in smoke and darkness, as well as being shown first aid including CPR and the use of a defibrillator. There are various other less Fire & Rescue specific training sessions throughout the week to build their skills and confidence. The week finishes with a graduation display in front of their families to showcase their new skills. The course is accredited, and students can achieve a SCQF level 4 Fire Skills employability award if all mandatory units are achieved. Our Community Action Team also completed a work experience placement for 2 students in partnership with Perth Autism Support. Health & Wellbeing Themed Initiatives / Activities Nursery/School Boxes New and updated Nursery and Primary school boxes were put together by local staff, these contain road safety resources and physical activities as part of the wider early year’s road safety project. The boxes also contain healthy eating messaging again with physical activity ideas and activities. Street Sports Street Sports was delivered in Blairgowrie over last summer in conjunction with Saints in the Community, Police Scotland, Safer Communities Team and Strathmore Centre for Youth Development. The main aims were increased physical activity, social opportunities for young people and reduction in Anti-Social Behaviour through the provision of diversionary activities. CPR Workshops Crieff Community Fire Station have facilitated several CPR and Defibrillator workshops in conjunction with Scottish Ambulance Service and Strathearn Defib, to up-skill members of the community on Basic Life Support and the use of Defibrillators. Other Initiatives / Activity Risk Recognition training continues to be delivered to partner agencies as part of the new HFSV pathway. Initial, catchup and refresher sessions have been delivered to PKC Housing, Sheltered Housing teams, Alzheimer Scotland, Home Energy Scotland and other organisations. Hoarding awareness for partner organisations is also delivered in addition to risk recognition training. The SFRS Fire Safety Support and Education (FSSE) programme is for those under the age of 18. Through the delivery of tailored interventions, the programme offers a flexible approach by specially trained advisors, to assist in the education of those who demonstrate an unsafe interest in fire or fire related anti-social behaviour. Fire Retardant resources continue to be issued to at risk individuals identified from HFSV’s or partnership working, this includes Fire Retardant bedding, throws and cellular blankets. Partnership working continues with Vision PK and Community Alarms to help with obtaining specialist smoke/heat detection resources for people with hearing impairment. SFRS continues to work to support Water Safety Scotland’s Drowning Prevention Strategy and the accompanying Ministerial Action Plan. A Water Safety Partnership has been established in P&K to progress a number of initiatives, including the creation of a Partnership Approach to Water Safety (PAWs) plan. This partnership, looks at prevention and post-incident considerations and provides tools/data for the partnership to agree how best direct joint resources to reduce water fatalities. The PAWs group also undertake learning reviews of such incidents and consider any mitigation to prevent such incidents happening again. Water/Ice safety talks were delivered in a number of local Primary schools over the winter period. Kinloch Rannoch crews continue to carryout camper patrols in partnership with Forestry & Land Scotland, PKC Visitor Rangers as part of visitor management strategy. 202507/05/25 © Scottish Fire & Rescue ServiceReport generated on

11. Glossary of Terms Term - What it means ADF Accidental Dwelling Fire. HFSV Home Fire Safety Visit. PDIR Post Domestic Incident Response, a term used to indicate actions taken following attendance at a fire or other incident in the home. PDIRs include amongst things the offer of a free follow up home fire safety visit. RTC Road Traffic Collision. Special Service Calls to incidents which are not fires or false alarms such as RTCs, rescues, flooding, incidents involving hazardous materials or the provision of assistance to other agencies. UFAS Unwanted Fire Alarm Signals. When an automatic fire detection and alarm system is activated as a result of anything other than an actual fire the activation is classed as a false alarm. If an attendance is made to such an event by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, then the event is recorded as an UFAS incident. UFAS Policy Change In response to COVID, on the 6th May 2020, the SFRS decided to send 1 pump to UFAS premises that did not have their own Predetermined attendance (PDA). As of 1st July 2023, the COVID interim 1 pump response was ended and a new UFAS policy was implemented. The new policy is to call challenge all UFAS incidents with the intention of non-attendance. Hospitals, care homes, and sleeping risk premises are all exempt and receive either 2 pumps or their premise specific PDA. 202507/05/25 © Scottish Fire & Rescue ServiceReport generated on
