Fire team challenge November 1st 2011 In September a group of 11
firefighters from Wells Fire Station
completed a two day climb up Mount
Snowdon to raise money for the Fire
Fighters Charity in memory of a
colleague who sadly died in a
motorcycle accident in late 2010.
Climbing Snowdon is a tough
enough challenge under normal
circumstances, but the team from
Wells Fire Station was keen to up the
stakes even more by climbing in full
fire fighting kit, helmets and
breathing apparatus, along with day
sacks and supplies. The breathing
apparatus (BA) and cylinders were
kindly donated by Scott Safety, a
company known around the world
for supplying specialist respiratory
and other PPE to the fire and rescue
services. More articles from Cirrus Research plc: |
