Westlea firefighters are making the most of the bank holiday weekend with a charity car wash on Saturday 27 May.

The event at the fire station on The Chesters, Stonehill Green will run between 9am - 1pm.

It aims to raise money for the Fire Fighters Charity - all contributions will be going towards the charity. 

The Fire Fighters Charity provides help to serving and retired personnel, their widows/widowers and young dependants through the provision of sheltered accomodation, recuperative facilities, rehabilitation and therapy, as well as giving financial support to those who need it. 

The charity works with some 10,000 beneficiaries every year at a cost of £12m per annum, and these services are financed almost exclusively by fundraising.
