I'm Ollie Smith a Firefighter from Malmesbury. In February I intend to retire from the fire service after 15 years of supporting the local community.
Before I go, I want to celebrate my time as a firefighter by doing something a bit different – so I'm taking part in a charity skydive!
“Being an on-call firefighter is a huge commitment and it’s one I can’t really make any more, as my business is growing and my family needs more of my time. I’m really proud to have served for fifteen years, so I wanted to mark the occasion by doing something that would benefit other people. Heals is very important to everyone in Malmesbury, so signing up for their charity skydive just seemed a great idea!”
Heals offers help, empowerment and support to local people in poverty and those who are vulnerable and disadvantaged. It enables individuals and families to make positive change by accessing a range of local services.
Two of my fire service colleagues – Sam Pyne and Alex Reid – are also taking up the challenge! Please support us and help us reach our £1050.00 target.
