Accident and Injury Fund

Ordinary Members who suffer an injury on or off-duty, or bereavement, may be eligible for benefits under the Union’s Accident and Injury Fund.

The Fund is financed by members contributions.

The Union in recent years has handled in excess of £600,000 annually in claims by FBU members.

For more information on how to submit a claim, and for help in filling it in, contact your local official.

You should find a claim form at most fire and rescue service places of work.
