Firefighters saddle up for charity bike
A Yate youngster has spurred two firefighters to get on their bikes for a 103-mile charity cycle ride next month. Firefighters Jan Morris and Di Clack will set out on the Devon Coast to Coast cycle route from Ilfracombe to Plymouth on Sunday 8 August.
The duo will be raising funds for the British Heart Foundation and The Fire Fighters Charity. Jan, who was previously a firefighter at Yate and is now Station Manager of Thornbury Fire Station, became aware of the work of the BHF after her niece was diagnosed with Right Heart Syndrome, a condition which meant a significant part of her heart was missing at birth.
