Sheila's Wheels Contribute Money To Trudys Gift Charity

In 2008 when we were planning our first ball we was approached by "Sheila's Wheels" who asked if we could do a photo of White watch Macc with a pink fire engine etc, we did and they donated £100 for our charities.

Cinder Bear Going Into Production

We have come up with an idea to produce a firefighter female bear, the whole of the UK firefighters have had a "Blaze Bear" for many years, which is male.

We thought it would be a good idea to make a female bear to highlight female firefighters in the Fire service, Debbie took this idea to the top management in the Fire dept and got full backing.

Cinders the Firefighter made her first public appearance at the Winter Snow Ball on the 12th March by bringing a birthday cake on stage for three lucky birthday girls (from left to right Briony, Ellie & Debbie) and everyone sang Happy Birthday to them. Well done Cinders and see you again very soon

Red Arrows Team Protocol

"Thank you for contacting the Red Arrows. I am delighted to enclose a 2010 Team Protocol, one of a limited edition of 500 per year. This protocol is hand signed by all the pilots of the 2010 Red Arrows, which makes it rather collectable.

On behalf of all the Red Arrows, may I take this opportunity to wish you much success with your fund raising efforts, and we hope that you are able to achieve your aims. Please do not hesitate to contact me if we can be of any assistance in the future."

Best wishes from the Red Arrows!
