The Fire Fighters Charity was set-up in the Second World War, with donation of just £24 to support the bereaved families of firefighters who had died during the Blitz.

Today they provide support to firefighters, their families and the extended community by providing proactive health and wellbeing information and lifestyle advice.

The charity also provides residential programmes, as well as digital support, to give beneficiaries the physical and psychological support they need.
