Raising money for 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. To find out more, please visit www.firefighterscharity.org.uk.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

We are planning to cycle 999 miles from Lands End to John O'Groats between September 14th and 25th 2008, an average of 84 miles per day!

We will need a support vehicle to take us to the start and home from the finish and to carry our gear between overnight stops. We plan to stay at fire stations, hostels and campsites where possible so as to keep expenses to a minimum.

With your help we hope this project will be a great success and that we can raise a lot of money for a very worthy cause.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: The Fire Fighters Charity will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
