Firefighters scrub up and raise cash during charity car wash

Firefighters from Holbeach station turned their attention and hoses to the town’s dirty cars all in a good cause.

The team spent Saturday in Tesco car park, Holbeach, washing cars and raising money for the National Firefighter’s Charity.

The car wash raised £204 and was one of ten car wash events that took place across the county over the last two weekends.

Lee Marsh, deputy divisional commander for West Division, said: “Our fire crews across

Lincolnshire have been taking part in car washes for a number of years now with members of the public always keen to support.

“All proceeds will go straight to The Firefighter’s Charity, which provides life enhancing support for serving and retired firefighters, and which is completely reliant on donations to continue its work.

“We hope as many people as possible will go along to their local station and help our crews raise money for a worthwhile cause.”
