We provide life-enhancing support to the UK's fire & rescue community.

Story

Rather than paying private companies to park your car when flying from East Midlands Airport, the crew at Castle Donington Fire Station can arrange for you to park at the fire station instead. 

This is not only a cheaper option for you, but also raises money for The Fire Fighters Charity. Since starting the holiday parking service, Castle Donington has raised over £16,000 which has directly helped many, many firefighters.

Parking charges at the airport are approximately £100 per week for a 5 minute walk to departures so we politely suggest a minimum donation of £20, although any amount is greatly appreciated.

The Fire Fighters Charity

"Helping everyday heroes to recover their lives... We understand the mental, physical and social burdens that can come from being a past or present member of the UK's dedicated fire services community. So we rescue the rescuers and help them to recover their lives when they need it most."
