National Car Wash League raises £244,000!

In just one year, your efforts to organise, promote and run car washes across the country have raised nearly a quarter of a million pounds for The Fire Fighters Charity. Here are the regional winners for each area of our National Car Wash League.

You’ve only gone and done it again, completely excelling yourself in our National Car Wash League, and smashing last year’s total.

Since last April, you’ve sploshed, sponged and hozed your way to raising an amazing £244,000 worth of funds that we can put directly towards supporting the mental, physical and social needs of the fire and rescue community. So on behalf of everyone you have already helped, are helping right now, and will help in the future, thank you so so much.

Congratulations to the Slough Fire Station who are our winners.

Top three stations nationally

Of course, we know fire personnel love a bit of competition, so it’s only fair we tell you who are the winners of our regional competitions, who managed to raise the most and who will be shortly receiving a hamper of goodies to say thank you.
