It's time to put the kettle on, because this May, were joining forces with Typhoo Tea to raise money in support of our incredible fire and rescue services community.

Firefighters are right up there with some of the biggest tea drinkers around, so we thought, what better way to recognise the efforts of our fire and rescue services community than with a cup of tea? Which is why on Tuesday 4 May, in line with International Firefighters Day, we're launching Brew With a Crew, in partnership with Typhoo Tea.

We wanted to celebrate the role the humble cup of tea plays in supporting our nation's firefighters, by bringing people together for a brew with the people they care most about. We're therefore inviting everyone to form their own crew whether that's with family, children, colleagues or friends and have a socially distanced or virtual Brew With a Crew and make a donation to The Fire Fighters Charity in the process.

Were kicking things off on International Firefighters Day on Tuesday 4 May, and invite you to join us for a brew throughout May. Set up your own crew and contribute to our JustGiving tea-taliser, helping us reach £10,000 that will go directly towards supporting the mental, physical and social wellbeing of our incredible fire family.
