Zurich Municipal has launched an initiative to combat deliberate fire setting in schools.
Zurich Municipal has developed the Arson Combated Together (ACT) Fire Brigade Tool Kit, which comprises a specially commissioned play and education programme.
The free kit will be available in Spring 2005 to enable fire brigades to implement the programme with schools in their local community.
The ACT Fire Brigade Tool Kit is supported by the Arson Prevention Bureau (APB), the Chief Fire Officers Association (CFOA), the ODPM-led Arson Control Forum and the National Community Fire Safety Centre (part of ODPM).
