Londonderry Watch Commander Chris Morrison decided to take part in an epic trek across the Sahara Desert, not only to say thank you to The Fire Fighters Charity, but also to prove to himself just how far he has come since having a colostomy bag fitted three years ago. Fourteen firefighters from Hampshire and West Sussex are heading to the Himalayas in an epic fundraising challenge that will push them to their limits. When Michael Bottomley moved up to secondary school, little did he know that he would find new friends among the firefighters in the station next door. Now he is trying to raise as much money as he can for the Charity that supports them. You have been busier than ever this month raising an incredible amount for our Charity, so here are just some of the wonderful activities you've been up to. Thanks to your remarkable fundraising achievements, we can be there to support the fire and rescue community and their families in need. Guernsey firefighter Chris Bisson pushed himself to the limit during his charity trek through the Amazon rainforest, and still found the energy to keep going. We sit down with him to hear about his incredible five-day hike to Colombia's Lost City.
