Cleveland Fire Authority is considering plans to:

Permanently close Marine Fire Station in Middlesbrough town centre
Cut 25% of full-time firefighter jobs — 130 in total

This will lead to:

Slower response times, with fire engines taking longer to reach you in your time of need
Less specialist equipment to deal with your emergency
Fewer home and school fire safety visits to help keep you and your children safe
A significantly increased risk to both the public and firefighters alike
