With just over a month to go until the Spirit of Fire Awards 2018, all our shortlisted nominees – across all ten awards categories – have now been contacted and confirmed.

The much anticipated event will take place at One Great George Street in Westminster, London on the morning of Thursday June 21 and will be followed by a reception for all nominees and winners at No.10 Downing Street.

Speaking ahead of the ceremony, The Fire Fighters Charity Chief Executive, Dr Jill Tolfrey said: “We are so grateful to everyone who took the time to nominate a colleague, team or friend for one of our awards. Deciding upon our shortlisted nominees was incredibly hard as the standard of nominations was so high and the Judging Panel deliberated for many hours before making its final decisions.

”We are looking forward to welcoming our nominees to the Spirit of Fire Awards next month and to announcing our very worthy winners.”

The invitation only ceremony this year is limited to nominees and their guests, but we are pleased to confirm that it will  also be streamed live on the Charity’s Facebook page. So please join us online on June 21 to mark the incredible achievements and dedication of our nominees and winners.
