David Kemp, Head of Prevention at ESFRS, expressed the organization’s delight over the grant. “This support will enable us to reach out to young people who are often on the fringes of youth groups, helping them to gain confidence, thrive within our units, and actively participate in their communities,” Kemp stated. He also extended a heartfelt thank you to the Cadet leaders and volunteers, whose contributions are invaluable to the success of the Fire Cadets.
