cirrusLeading independent telecare, fire and security systems provider Cirrus has pledged to provide support to The Fire Fighters Charity as part of new charity partnership

The support from Cirrus will comprise free-of-charge maintenance of fire systems at one of the charity’s rehabilitation centres in Littlehampton which offers services to enhance the quality of life for serving and retired fire fighters and their families.

Head of Cirrus Steve Russell, said: "The Fire Fighters Charity is an obvious choice for Cirrus to support given our role in the design, installation and maintenance of fire detection and protection systems. We’re delighted to have the opportunity to give our expertise in support of such an important cause.”

To mark the start of the partnership Cirrus has donated £3,000 to the charity and staff have pledged to raise further funds throughout the coming year.

These fundraising efforts were kicked recently when two team members abseiled 560ft down the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth and a colleague completed an Ironman 70.3 competition in Austria.

Patrick Crowe, Corporate Partnerships Manager at The Fire Fighters Charity, added: "Support from individuals and corporate partners is vital in helping us carry out this work and having Cirrus’ expertise and brilliant fundraising efforts on board is extremely valuable."
