Do something great today!
We want as many people as possible to support us by becoming one of our Community Members, and hope to develop a membership of people across the West Midlands who want to have a say and shape our services.
It’s free and easy to join, and you’ll automatically be invited to exclusive events across the region. Plus, you’ll get to have a say in what we do and receive a dedicated newsletter just for members.
You can choose to be involved as little or as much as you wish – from receiving regular information about what we are doing, to taking part in consultations, or attending open days, seminars, or participating in focus groups and surveys.
Membership is open to anyone aged 16 and above who lives in West Midlands. If you would like to become a member, simply fill out the form below and leave the rest to us. This form is not for firefighter recruitment – visit our careers section for information on how to apply.
