It’s 50 years since Staffordshire FRS was formed and to mark the occasion, the service has a number of events planned with the aim of raising £50,000. West Midlands firefighter Iain Hughes tragically passed away in 2023, while swimming the English Channel in aid of us and two other charities. Dave Smith, a dedicated charity volunteer, took on a once-in-a-lifetime challenge to raise vital funds for us - and documented the whole experience in a diary. Steel stockholder John Tainton has generously donated £10,000 to us after firefighters saved its premises from a neighbouring fire. Around 40 West Midlands FRS personnel gathered at the highest mountain in Wales to pull off a fundraising challenge with a difference.
