  • The Ministry of Defence Fire Service was formed on 1 April 1991 by the amalgamation of the Navy Department Fire Prevention Service, Army Department Fire Service, Air Force Department Fire Service and Procurement Executive Fire Service. It was later renamed the Defence Fire Service. It was a civilian organisation which protected mainly domestic sites at RAF, Army and Navy installations. It later became part of a similarly named umbrella body, the Ministry of Defence Fire Services, which also included the RAF Firefighting and Rescue Service, a military organisation which protected mainly RAF airfields and runways. The Defence Fire Service was renamed the Defence Fire and Rescue Service in 2004 following the introduction of the Fire and Rescue Services Act. The Act, among other things, acknowledges that Fire Brigades in the UK do more than just simply fight fire. Most UK Brigades changed their names from Fire Services to Fire & Rescue Services during this period. The name change only applies to the civilian fire service, the Royal Air Force Fire Service still remains a separate organisation.
