irefighters at Bracknell Fire Station hosted a charity car wash earlier this month to raise money for The Fire Fighters Charity. With hoses at the ready, the team in Downshire Way washed all manner of vehicles all day to help raise money for this worthy cause – and the final total was £1,360. One satisfied customer said: “Had the best fun - such a great bunch of guys that really were up for the banter and they did a good job of washing the car too!” Crowthorne firefighters with be mixing up the suds for their car wash on Saturday 23rd March, as will Caversham Road fire station. Every year, hundreds of firefighters across the UK wash as many cars as possible to raise money for this charity.
