Billingshurst Fire Station: Countdown to charity car wash
Countdown to Charity Car Wash!
Not long to go before we invite and welcome you to attend our first charity car wash in over 18 months. On Saturday 11th September from 10am-2pm we will be ready with our buckets and sponges!

All we ask for is a small donation towards our chosen charity, The Firefighters Charity, which looks after us and our families in lots of different areas. There will be hot drinks, cakes and snacks available. Due to COVID, we totally respect and understand if you would prefer to stay in your vehicle while we get to work. For those wanting some fresh air we will have sanitizing areas available. We ask everyone for a bit of common sense on the day and leading up to it; if you ave any signs or symptoms beforehand please do not attend.
Earlier last month, we recruited a new member to the station. Although he’s been in the Fire Service since 2018, Joe Bagwell recently moved from Partridge Green to Billingshurst, and is now on call for the Billingshurst community. He has settled in well, and is a valued team member in our already great team. We also have a potential new recruit joining us this month too if training courses continue and he is successful. Watch this space for an introduction. We will be hopefully continue with school visits and welcoming back small groups to the station once the summer holidays end and the government’s rules allow us to do this. It feels like we are starting to get back to normality which is really exciting as it’s been a difficult 18 months for everyone. We hope to see as many of you as possible at our charity car wash. Stay safe everyone. Twitter: @Station49Fire Facebook: Billingshurst Fire Station Dan Game, Billingshurst Fire Station
