Appendix 1: Overview logic models for KFRS intervention activity

Education overview logic model

education logic model

Assumptions

  • Gatekeepers of relevant institutions will grant KFRS access, enabling KFRS to deliver programmes/interventions to children.
  • Events proceed as planned.
  • Levels of participation are sufficient (thresholds for sufficient participation will vary by event type).
  • Participants understand the educational material.
  • Participants engage with the tasks and activities.
  • The information and activities have a motivating effect on participants regarding fire, road and water safety.
  • Short-term positive effects on safety knowledge, motivation and behaviour will translate into sustained patterns of safe behaviour.
  • Improvements in motivation and knowledge as to responding to emergencies will translate into actual behaviour in an emergency.

External factors

  • Internal capacity within staff teams for undertaking the project.
  • Event factors (e.g., venue availability, staff absence, functional facilities).
  • Functional IT systems and equipment.
  • Operational transport networks.
  • Future socio-political events related to fire safety (which could affect perceptions of the fire service and consequential participation and engagement).
  • Random factors (e.g., weather, which could affect participation levels on the day).
  • Engagement levels amongst partners.
  • The impact of COVID-19 on school arrangements.
  • The impact of the UK exit from the EU on factors such as travel.
  • The impact of Ofsted requirements on school programmes.
  • Similar educational offers available from other agencies.

Online open day overview logic model

Assumptions

  • Sufficient levels of participation amongst parents and children
  • Parents and children understand the informative material
  • Parents and children engage with the tasks and activities (e.g. immediate smoke alarm testing)
  • The information and activities have a motivating effect on parents and children regarding fire safety
  • The Online Open Day is promulgated, with positive effects for the reputation of KFRS with the community and partners
  • Short-term positive effects on safety knowledge, motivation and behaviour will translate into sustained patterns of safe behaviour
  • Improvements in motivation and knowledge as to responding to emergencies will translate into actual behaviour in an emergency
  • Enhanced awareness of KFRS as an employer will convert into more job applications in the future

External factors

  • Internal capacity within staff teams for undertaking the project
  • Social media functions and settings (e.g. unexpected changes to Facebook could affect the event)
  • Functional IT systems (i.e. IT systems need to be functioning correctly for the event to go ahead)
  • Future socio-political events related to fire safety (these could affect perceptions of the fire service and consequential participation and engagement)
  • Random factors (e.g. weather, which could affect online participation levels)

Buildings Safety overview logic model

Building Safety Logic Model

Assumptions

  • RP is motivated by safety of residents – wants to make sure building is compliant for social/business good.
  • RP will prioritise fire safety of building in amongst other priorities of their work.
  • RP will take time to ensure understand legislation and regulations relating to fire safety.
  • Assumes ability of KFRS teams to join up thinking and working efficiently – communication between relevant people involved internally
  • Currently, there is significant scope for improvement in the degree of compliance amongst RPs, risk assessors tend to take a relatively relaxed/minimalist approach to risk assessment and occupiers tend not to exert pressure on RPs around non-compliance.
  • Different forms of capability and motivation are the key barriers to the desired behaviours in each of the target groups.
  • The target groups will have the capability to comprehend the information conveyed.

External factors

  • Grenfell and response to inquiry, social expectations of fire services around HR buildings
  • Resident fears following Grenfell need to be considered (and explored with residents)
  • Political environment may change- particularly involvement in fire following inquiry
  • Organisational landscape- ILAM and upcoming inspection changing way of working

Public Safety Campaigns overview logic model

Safe & Well Home Visits overview logic model

safe and well home visits overview logic model

Assumptions

  • Customers will take up offer of visit and allow KFRS entry to home for allotted time.
  • Customers remember the appointment and are home for time of visit.
  • Levels of uptake are sufficient.
  • Participants understand the home fire safety advice.
  • The information has a motivating effect on participants regarding home fire safety.
  • Short-term positive effects on safety knowledge, motivation and behaviour will translate into sustained patterns of safe behaviour.

External factors

  • Partner agencies are aware of S&W visits and are making suitable referrals.
  • Ability to secure equipment for customer needs.
  • Future socio-political events related to fire safety (which could affect perceptions of the fire service and consequential participation and engagement).
  • The impact of COVID-19 on home visits.
  • The impact of the UK exit from the EU on factors such as distribution and supply of equipment.
