Hi all


I live in Honor Oak Park and am involved in a charity mission which will see a crew of friends attempt to raise thousands of pounds, and achieve Guinness World Record? status, for the longest continuous trip in a fire engine - a record never before attempted.


On July 18, the fire engine and crew will embark on a 26,000-mile mission, around the world, covering 28 countries, over nine months.


The expedition is leaving at 12:00pm from The Grand Square at the Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich - the Prime Meridian of the world.


100% of the money we raise goes to 3 charities - Macmillan Cancer Support, The Fire Fighters Charity and The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation.


Myself and the other crew members will be at the Old Royal Naval College from 10am everyone is welcome so if you fancy it please do come and wave us off. Martha, our fire engine is always a BIG hit with the kids especially


Further details and the story behind Follow That Fire Engine are on our website http://www.followthatfireengine.com and a trailer of the documentary we are making is on you tube




Thank you

    • Another stinker, thank goodness for the international break. Week 3 points...   Week 3 table...  
    • Hospices are coming under increasing pressure at the moment. Not only have their costs been forced up by the increase in employers NI and possibly the minimum wage for some workers, but the recent assisted dying legislation, which forces doctors faced with patients likely to die to offer suicide as a way out means that numbers of hospice doctors will withdraw as they don't ethically hold with the legislation. Additionally we might anticipate a reduction in research on end-of-life care and pain alleviation where the government is supporting an alternative (and one far cheaper than proper end-of-life care). This all brings pressure on the hospice movement as the assisted dying philosophy runs counter to it. It is hardly surprising then that they are looking to gain as much benefit as they can from higher prices.
    • There are plenty of charity shops around, even on Lordship Lane. For SCH one, would be interested to see how much of the donations goes to rent and overheads, rather than the actual intended cause.
