Firefighter Andy Davies (left) and police officer Marvin Choudhury (centre) present Mike Perry of the Severn Hospice with a cheque for £753, the proceeds of an annual ‘Firefighters vs Crimefighters’ charity football match.
“The match between teams from Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service and West Mercia Police is played every year but this year Marvin and I decided to turn it into an emergency services fun day and a fund-raiser for the Severn Hospice,” Andy said.
A prediction of a fourth consecutive fire service win turned out to be right as the firefighters swept to a 5 – 3 victory.
