My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit the Rosehill Street JustGiving page.

We are having a residents street party to celebrate luck and life. On Thursday 10th May there was a gas explosion on our street which razed one house completely to the ground. In the aftermath, there are other houses that will need to be demolished and several families that are still unable to get back into their houses.

We are celebrating as, miraculously, no-one was seriously hurt. All the residents were on the street on that devastating night and we now want to reclaim the street and celebrate in more happy circumstances.

All money raised from our Party is being donated to The Fire Service Charity to say THANK YOU to the brave Fire Fighters who helped us in our hours of need.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

My charity

The Fire Fighters Charity

The Fire Fighters Charity

Charity Registration No. 1093387

Every 30 seconds in the UK fire fighters are called to an incident, risking their lives to save others, but sadly they often sustain physical injuries whilst carrying out their duties. The Fire Fighters Charity is here for fire fighters during their times of need. The Charity offers vital support services across the UK for all fire fighters, assisting in excess of 17,500 individuals every year. Our modern, dynamic and award-winning charity has three UK centres, located in Cumbria, Devon and West Sussex, which provide therapy, rehabilitation and recuperation facilities. Our pioneering Beneficiary Support Services offers local and remote assistance to fire service personnel in need nationwide – providing solutions to real life problems. It costs over £9 million every year to keep the Charity running, and with no government funding, we are completely reliant upon donations and fundraising, so your support is very much needed.
