Charity Car Wash for the Fire Fighters Charity Oakham Fire Station South Street Oakham LE15 6BQ

Charity Car Wash for the Fire Fighters Charity

Saturday, September 21st

Get your car washed for a donation to the Fire Fighters charity

You’ll be helping to raise vital funds for The Fire Fighters Charity and you’ll put your local firefighters in the mix to win a national fundraising award.

On 21st September 2019, Oakham Station will be on hand to make your car sparkle. Your valued donations will go towards The Fire Fighters Charity who provide support and rehabilitation to the fire and rescue community.

Firefighting can be dangerous, stressful and traumatic. When firefighters are injured, they can be in pain and unable to work for months. Dealing with life or death situations every day often takes its toll emotionally too.

The Fire Fighters Charity has been supporting the fire services community for 75 years. The Charity started by supporting bereaved families of firefighters killed during the Blitz and has now evolved into a modern-day service that provides life enhancing health and wellbeing support to the whole fire community.

The Fire Fighters Charity is here for every one of the UK’s serving and retired members of fire and rescue staff – and their families. No other organisation provides such a full package of health and wellbeing support, exactly tailored to the needs of firefighters.

Firmly established on the fire and rescue service calendar, the National Car Wash League is the Charity's largest national fundraising event of the year. As well as being a fun and popular fundraising event, the Car Wash also gives firefighters the unique opportunity to share vital community safety advice with a large cross-section of their community.
