*important announcement*
It is a huge disappointment that the decision has been made to POSTPONE the Santa Sleigh due to the latest COVID-19 Government advice. Our priority is the safety of our community and we feel that it would be safest option to rearrange until the new year.
We will keep you all up to date with our new plans, and we will be back, bigger and better as soon as it is safe to do so.
All of us at Burton Latimer Fire Station would like to wish you all a very safe & Merry Christmas.
