We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who's taken part in a fundraiser to mark our 80th anniversary year. Here are just a few highlights so far. We hear from the brother of Maureen, late wife of our co-founder Ronnie Greene, and our biographer about our early beginnings. We’re celebrating our 80th anniversary on 17 August – that’s eight decades through which we’ve stood side-by-side with the UK’s fire services community, helping them to live healthier and happier. From ladder climbs to mountain treks and more, fire cadets right across the UK put themselves to the test to raise vital funds for us in June. Our partners at PayPlan have shared tips on places to eat out where kids go free, as well as free activities to keep them entertained.
