HEREFORDSHIRE firefighters ran 5k in their full kits this weekend all for a great cause.

Both crew commanders from Kingsland fire station ran in their fire suits in the Tenbury Santa Run yesterday evening (December 20) for the charity firefighters 999.

The money raised will support the health and wellbeing of the UK fire services community.

A spokesperson from the station said: “Not quite as hardcore as Tenbury fire crew as they are doing it whilst under air as well.”

The crew and town support the event every year.
