Lincoln is the only city within the area, as well as large towns such as Grantham, Boston, Skegness, Spalding and Gainsborough. The rest of the area's 751,000 inhabitants are spread over other medium-sized towns and villages. </p><p>East Coast Flooding is one of the main risks to the area, seen in the <a href="/wiki/Cyclone_Xaver" title="Cyclone Xaver">2013 east coast tidal surge</a>, where the town of Boston and surrounding areas of southern Lincolnshire and Norfolk were affected. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lincolnshire_Fire_and_Rescue_Service&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Overview"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The service employs 688 firefighters and staff, with around 250 full-time firefighters. The county's 38 fire stations are allocated to one of three divisions (East, West and South). The majority of Lincolnshire is covered by retained duty staff (RDS), who attend on a call-out basis. The retained staff are supported by full-time firefighters (wholetime) based at nine different stations around the county. They also offer specialist skills and equipment, such as rope/high-line rescue, water rescue, animal rescues etc. Lincolnshire firefighters have supported rescue efforts nationally, such as in the floods of 2007 and most recently the Berkshire flooding in 2014 and Cumbria/North Yorkshire floods of 2015. The headquarters are now part of a joint Police and Fire HQ based at the Lincolnshire Police Headquarters in Nettleham, just outside of Lincoln. The county boasts its Waddington Training Facility located to the south of the city using a former part of the RAF Waddington site, allowing realistic training environments used by many other fire services and organisations. </p><p>The county also has a tri-service emergency hub accommodating personnel and vehicles of Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue Service, East Midlands Ambulance Service and Lincolnshire Police service in a purpose-built £21 million building on South Park Avenue in Lincoln. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lincolnshire_Fire_and_Rescue_Service&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Prior to 1974, when Lincolnshire was administratively three separate counties, there were three fire brigades for the geographic county, covering Kesteven, Holland and Lindsey, with Lindsey being the biggest, which formed in 1948.
