Drivers turned out in force on Saturday, 14th March, to support the Wilmslow firefighters 11th annual car wash, helping to raise nearly £800 for the Fire Fighters Charity.
Car wash organiser, firefighter Billy Cooper, said: "Firefighters and helpers with their buckets and sponges raised money for this worthy cause as well as handing out road safety advice at the Station. We'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who helped us raise an amazing £778."
Chair of the Fire Fighters Charity and Deputy Chief Fire Officer Mark Cashin said, "It is testament to the support we have from the public when events such as this show how generous people can be as a magnificent total of £778 was raised on the day.
"It costs over £9 million every year to keep The Fire Fighters Charity running and, with no government funding, it is completely reliant on donations from the general public and fire community."
