Friends plan relay swim in memory of firefighter Iain Hughes

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. More than 30 colleagues from Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service have climbed 10 peaks in just 24 hours in memory of their friend Stu Crebbin, who was a devoted supporter of the Charity before his death.
