Protecting Frontline Workers
Firefighters are one of the first services on the scene in an emergency situation and we rely upon them to provide critical life saving operations.
However, there has been a sharp increase in instances of anti-social behaviour directed towards them as they attempt to protect and preserve life.
Statistics released by the NFCC show that:
930 firefighters were attacked while on duty in 2021
These attacks resulted in 54 injuries
18% of incidents involve missiles and objects being thrown at firefighters
Attacks soar around bonfire night
Because of these shocking statistics, there are widespread calls for Fire and Rescue teams to be fitted with body cameras.
Enhancing Worker Safety
The distinctive forward-facing screen on WCCTV's body cameras plays a significant role in de-escalating conflict. When individuals are aware they are being recorded, their behaviour dramatically improves.
Small, discreet and lightweight, WCCTV's body cameras are barely noticeable to the wearer once they are attached. Despite the unit's compact size, it contains market-leading functionality and features.
The device's 1080p video recording capability means you will capture high-quality video evidence, whether for police investigations, identifying individuals for convictions or training employees.
The optional extended battery pack easily clips onto the bottom of the Body Camera, providing an additional 8 hours of run time, making it ideal for applications beyond the usual daily working pattern.
All footage captured on a WCCTV Body Camera is encrypted to AES 256-bit standard, making it completely secure and inaccessible to unauthorised users.
WCCTV’s cloud based Evidence Management Software (EMS) provides simple and secure management of videos taken from a WCCTV Body Worn Camera.

Our robust and durable body worn cameras provide frontline teams with valuable evidence to support fire investigations, as well as aid criminal investigations and prosecutions. Additional benefits include:
