It must be something to do with the values of the fire service, but
at Avon Fire & Rescue many of our staff are dedicated to
raising money for charity. They take part in an wide
array of fundraising challenges, ranging from driving a Landrover
over 4,000 miles on cooking oil, to cycling, canoeing and running
across The Gambia.
New! In September two AF&RS crew members
are running the 'Tunnel
to Towers' challenge in New York, in full fire kit. The
pair will run from The Brooklyn Tunnel to Ground Zero and raise
much needed funds for GAFSIP and The Firefighters Charity, find out
more about the challenge and how you can help them by following the

Much of the fundraising is for GAFSIP - Gambia and Avon
Fire Service in Partnership but there are other charity's close
to Avon Fire & Rescue Service's heart, including the
The Fire Fighters
Charity
