Story

Firefighters encounter extremely stressful, traumatic and dangerous situations as part of their job and witness things that no one can ever be fully prepared for. This can take a toll on them hours, days and years after the event. We are here to support these everyday heroes.

We were founded during the dark days of the London Blitz to support the bereaved families of brave firefighters who laid down their lives to tackle the devastation seen across the Capital in the early 1940s.Today, almost 75 years later, we've evolved to offer a broad range of services and support to firefighters and their families coming to terms with and recovering from trauma, injury or illness. 

Through the provision of a range of health and wellbeing programmes, including residential rehabilitation, recuperation, psychological and community-based support, we positively impact upon the lives of thousands of members of the UK fire community.
