Trowbridge firefighters are making the most of the Coronation weekend with a charity car wash on Sunday 7 May.
The event at the fire station on Hilperton Road will run between 10am and 2pm, with the aim of raising money for the Fire Fighters Charity, and the fire crews will be joined by Fire Cadets to do the washing.
The Fire Fighters Charity provides help to serving and retired personnel, their widows/widowers and young dependants through the provision of sheltered accommodation, 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 £12 million per annum, and these services are financed almost exclusively by fundraising. More information can be found at www.firefighterscharity.org.uk
