We are Audlem Fire Station, a crew of on-call Firefighters working for Cheshire Fire & Rescue Service and our community.

In July 2023, our Crew Manager Steve Fellows was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour called glioblastoma. Sadly, we lost Steve in the following October.

In memory of Steve, the crew have decided to embark on a cycle ride from Audlem in Cheshire, to Harcombe House in Devon (A2HH). The journey is approx. 220 miles and will will be cycled over 4 days. Harcombe House was a favourite holiday location for Steve and his family, and we have decided that this would be a fitting destination for this ride.

The crew have decided to raise funds for two causes that our very close to our hearts. The Firefighters Charity and to The Brain Tumour Research Charity.

The Firefighters Charity is very dear to anyone working, or having worked, in the Fire & Rescue Service. As no one ever knows when their support will be needed, it is an invaluable resource. The Brain Tumour Research Charity has been chosen specifically to recognise the great work that is being done to eradicate this terrible disease.

The fundraising cycle ride will start on Tuesday 10th September from Audlem Fire Station, and conclude once the crew have reached Harcombe House, the target for this will be Friday 13th September. Along the way, the crew will aim to stop off at as many Fire Service stations as possible for welcomed cups of tea!

Steve was loved by all who knew him and was a special character in our village, and was father to his 8x beautiful children and his wife Vicki. Steve served Audlem Fire Station for 20 years, and we hope that you will support us in this fantastic challenge` and donate to our chosen charities.
