In an inspiring display of courage and quick thinking, two young siblings from Surrey Heath have been recognized for their life-saving actions during a house fire last December. George, aged 12, and Olivia, aged 9, were recently welcomed at Camberley Fire Station by the Surrey Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) to honour their bravery.

The incident occurred at their father’s house when the fire alarm sounded. George noticed the tumble dryer on fire, and together with Olivia, they took immediate action. Olivia helped to contain the fire by closing the kitchen door, while George rushed upstairs to rescue their sleeping baby brother, Luke. They also ensured their grandmother’s safety, who was present in the house, before calling 999.
