WHY THE FIRE FIGHTERS CHARITY?

I have always been impressed with the work that the Fire Fighters Charity carries out through its three rehabilitation and therapy centres across the UK and whilst I have been fortunate not to have been injured whilst on duty, I recognise that I or any of my staff (2300 people) may need its services at some stage in the future.

I’m immensely grateful for the Charity’s support, financially and otherwise, assisting me undertake this challenge of a lifetime. If you have been inspired by this adventure, please donate using the link on your right.

Thank you.

Every year, thousands of fire fighters are injured whilst protecting the public. Every 30 seconds in the UK, fire fighters are called to an incident, putting their lives on the line, and often sustaining physical injuries whilst carrying out their duties. The Fire Fighters Charity is here for fire fighters during their times of need, and assists over 17,000 individuals every year, by providing pioneering treatment and support services.

The modern, dynamic and award-winning charity has three UK centres, located in Cumbria, Devon and West Sussex, which offer varying combinations of therapy and recuperation services. The Charity’s pioneering new Beneficiary Support Services also offer local and remote assistance to people in need nationwide. It costs over £9 million every year to keep the Charity running, and with no government funding, the Charity are completely reliant upon donations from the general public and fire community.
