Recorded at the 2026 World Fire Congress in Westminster, I caught up with my friend Professor Rowena Hill from Nottingham Trent University, who also chairs the NFCC Academic Collaboration, Evaluation and Research Board. In this conversation, we explore firefighter health and wellbeing through a much wider lens than physical fitness alone, looking at psychological and social health, resilience, moral injury, retirement and identity, and why I believe we need to become far better at preventing problems rather than simply responding once somebody reaches crisis. We also look at research from the UK and internationally, and talk about the wider role the modern Fire and Rescue Service can play in early intervention, problem-solving and supporting the communities we serve.
