September 2025 fundraising highlights

The last four weeks have been packed full of endurance challenges, fire station events, in-memory fundraisers and much more.

Whether you prefer team events or solo challenges, climbs or runs, or simply gathering your friends and family together, there’s been fundraising inspiration everywhere this last few weeks – and we’re sending a heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you who’s supported us.

Rounding off September was the Loch Ness Marathon, with five runners taking on the hilly endurance challenge in aid of us – including our own Regional Fundraiser, Lyndsay Campbell, and Company Member, Kayleigh McInnes.

You can see just a few of the photo highlights from them here:

A man wearing a black shirt and red suspenders smiles and holds up a River Ness 5K 2023 medal, with a "2023" lanyard visible. He appears sweaty and happy, standing in front of a white background.

A group of adults and children stand outdoors on a gravel path, smiling and holding two bright red “Fire Fighters Charity” banners. Some people in the background are also present along a road lined with trees and greenery.

A man stands on a podium holding a medal, smiling. In front of him is a large sign for the Baxters Loch Ness Marathon, featuring a stylized Loch Ness Monster. A white event tent and blue sky are in the background.

Meanwhile, we saw moving 9/11 tribute fundraisers, as well as incredible in-memory challenges and events following the Bicester Motion tragedy, with supporters right across the UK coming together to remember Jennie Logan, Martyn Sadler and Dave Chester.

Don’t forget, you can share your amazing fundraising achievements, encourage others and share ideas on My Fire Fighters Charity. We have a series of dedicated groups you can join. Just register now and head to the ‘Groups’ tab at the top of the My Fire Fighters Charity homepage.
