How can we thank the Fire Service?

Fire fighters did a great job but so did many volunteers who turned out to help in an emergency.

I agree Cossy.
I always feel for them attending fatal road accidents as well as other duties, a lot of their shifts are many nasty jobs other than fires.

Our fire people are amazing. They are extremely well trained and have really stepped up to the mark and everything they’ve done recently is to be applauded.

However, in the nicest way, I feel that they are doing their job, the one they chose and the one that they are paid to do.

Just like many of our public services.

I supported them when they striked, as I think they raised excellent points.

Dropping something in to a local station would be much appreciated and a nice big public thank-you from those in charge would be brilliant.

Our firefighters have been working tirelessly this summer to keep us safe so deserve our thanks as do other emergency services who put their lives on the line.

Thankyou for your lovely post Chestnut, one of my sons is a Fireman and also this situation.
They do an amazeing Job, some incidents they have to deal with are just awful as its not only putting out fires.

I think that just our thanks would be enough and to support them in any way we can. They do their job like any of us and I just hope they know how sincerely we are grateful to them.

Or simple "thank yous" from the ordinary public?

The same as we often do if grateful for the support of medical teams?

I just dropped a card and box of biscuits off to our local fire station many years ago.

A tray of clementines maybe?
