CAR wash fun: Glossop firefighters Steve Harris and Craig Cate with carwasher Anthony Fairhurst
Firemen scrub up for charity cash
14/ 4/2005
GLOSSOP firefighters are hoping to clean up for a good cause.
Crews will be going back to basics with buckets of water for a car wash in aid of the Firefighters' Benevolent Fund which helps firefighters and their families through difficult times. And anyone whose car needs a spring clean can rest assured a good job will be done.
Leading firefighter Steve Harris said: "We hold car washes about twice a year and they're always a success but we couldn't join in the countywide one earlier this year because we had other commitments.
"Hopefully we'll get better weather this time. And I don't know about being better at washing cars but we definitely rinse them better,"he said.
The charity event takes place at Wild and Hallam's Car Wash on Dinting Road, Glossop next Saturday, 23 April. Call in anytime from 10am-4pm.
