You’ve inspired us once again with some amazing fundraising challenges, events and donations over the last month and we want to say a massive thank you to anyone taking part.
From an SAS-inspired challenge to one woman’s epic bike ride in memory of a colleague and an absolutely incredible £10,000 donation, plus so much more, you’ve raised the bar sky high in February!
Below are just a few highlights…
And don’t forget, you can share your amazing fundraising achievements, encourage others and share ideas on MyFFC. We have a series of dedicated groups you can join, from Fire Family Challenge and Challengers to Runners, riders, walkers and more!

A group of firefighters completed the Fan Dance, an SAS selection route this weekend to raise money for charity 🚶🏻
The team raised £1,214 which will be split 50/50 between @firefighters999 and Hardwick Boxing Academy.
Thanks to everyone that supported them along the way ❤️ pic.twitter.com/D5JbhclV2L

Just over a year ago we shared the story of On-Call @WarksFireRescue firefighter, Alison Insley. Now Alison is taking on another amazing challenge for us – cycling on a static bike for 32 miles a day, in memory of Kieran Amos.
Good luck @alisonnakra! https://t.co/n5SuFuYr7h

This time next week I’ll be starting 24 hours running the @LooePioneers 10 miler route to raise money for @firefighters999(hopefully in better weather). It seemed like a good idea last year, now I’m not so sure😬 https://t.co/Vkedn0MdMs#fundraising #firefamilychallenge pic.twitter.com/8KZsVq7B8y
