On Friday 8 October, Firefighters from Kibworth Fire and Rescue Station in Leicestershire will be attempting to climb Mount Snowdon wearing full fire kit, in a bid to raise money for charity.
They have set a sponsorship target of £1,085 – that’s £1 for each metre climbed to the summit of the Welsh mountain. The money raised will be donated to ‘The Fire Fighters Charity’ and ‘The Well,’ Kibworth.
The Fire Fighters Charity is a cause that works to support firefighters and their families mentally, physically and socially if they need help.
The Well Kibworth is a registered charity operating a food bank, café, charity shop and community support offering friendship and practical support for everyone in Kibworth and surrounding villages. The Well supports Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service’s aim of creating ‘safer people, safer places’.
Kibworth Fire and Rescue Station has formed a partnership with The Well, and will be working closely with them to make sure that the vulnerable within the local community are as safe as they can be in their own homes and have the support they need.
Any donations to these two great charities are warmly welcomed. You can donate via www.peoplesfundraising.com/fundraising/MountSnowdonCharityWalk
