We're a CAA regulated rescue and fighting service made up of 100% volunteers. We are a multifunctional crew, consisting of operational firefighters, control operators and volunteer service support. We provide a critical emergency response, along with other services to The Shuttleworth Trust for events and the licensed airfield, we are the first emergency response to some of UK's oldest heritage aviation collections.
To support the range of services we provide to the airfield including our emergency response we are a registered charity with the UK charity commission. This has enable us to build life long partnerships, supporters and followers of our amazing service and crew.
With large projects ahead of us we are seeking funding through donations, sponsorship and grants to enable us to replace our ageing fleet of emergency vehicles, PPE and equipment.
If you know someone that would be interested in donating, sponsoring or investing in our fantastic life saving, heritage protecting organisation then we want to hear from them.
