Young people

London Fire Brigade for young people.

We're really passionate about supporting young Londoners. From having fun and gaining skills with Fire Cadets, through to helping children who set fires, here's where to find out more.   

Fire Cadets – join the London Fire Brigade family

Our free, nationally-recognised programme is a great way for young people aged 14-17 to have fun, make friends, gain a qualification and develop their skills and confidence. Learn more about what we offer young people and the opportunities for adult volunteering.

Worried about a child or young person playing with fire?

If a young person you know plays with fire or has set a fire, our specialist intervention team can help. Find out more about the Juvenile Firesetters Intervention Scheme here...

School visits

We believe the best way to keep Londoners safe is through fire safety education – and that starts primary school. Learn more about school visits.

Community football programme

We’re working with GOALS UK to deliver a community football programme for young people. Find out more and see if your school or club is eligible to take part.
