The Firefighter's Charity is a charity that many firefighters past and present will rely on during or after their career. Their fantastic support means that firefighter's that need both Physical and Mental help have the support they need to make a recovery.

Over the past few years, members of blue watch and Oxfordshire Fire & Rescue, along with other firefighter's and their families have needed the help and support the charity can offer to rehabilitate and give them the support they need to overcome injury.

The Charity relies on public support for the majority of their funding and blue watch at Rewley Road Fire Station are taking on the challenge of running continuously to each fire station in the county to raise as much money as possible for such a good cause.

On the 24th June 2023, the challenge will see a team relay of firefighters from the watch run continuously for approximately 200 miles starting at Banbury Fire Station and visiting every station in the county, completing the challenge at Rewley Road.

The Fire Fighters Charity is there for every member of the UK’s fire service community, helping them all to live healthier and happier throughout their lives.

And it’s not just about firefighters. The Charity supports past and present fire and rescue service personnel, whatever their role, as well as spouses, families and many other eligible individuals across a diverse community of around 300,000 people.

Our fire and rescue services are always there for us when we need them, helping us at the lowest and most terrifying moments of our lives. To do that, they need to be physically and mentally well, at work and at home.

The Charity’s role is therefore to ensure that it’s there for them, for life, working as their health and wellbeing companion, supporting every aspect of their lives to ensure that they can be there for you when you need them.

The Charity offers a range of services to help the whole fire family look after their wellbeing – from expert support and advice over the phone, online or in-person, to support groups for retirees, a Wellbeing Hub full of online resources and much more.

However, it couldn’t provide any of this life-changing support without your help, so please donate what you can now to make a huge difference to the UK’s fire family. Visit www.firefighterscharity.org.uk to find out more.
