has been vital in keeping us up and running since NUFR started back in 2019. Wondering how they support us?

• They provide our car! We wouldn’t be able to travel to any 999 calls without using their vehicle.

• They set aside a large chunk of their volunteering budget for us every year, around £1200-1500! This funding goes towards uniforms, running costs, snacks for our shifts/Governance meetings etc!

• We use the SU as a base for all of our activities, including where we store all our kit, where we hold interviews and meetings, and can hire out space for our fundraising activities like last years pub quiz!

• General support! They are available to help us with organisational and promotional support with all of our endeavours, and we couldn’t do what we do without them ✨
