Festive fun at Glossop Fire Station's Christmas Market

Glossop Fire Station was a hive of festive activity on Monday afternoon (19 December) as it hosted its Christmas Market. 

Residents of all ages had lots of fun at the Whitfield Park station whilst raising money for a worthy cause. 

There was a chance to meet Father Christmas, have your face painted and even have a go at spraying a fire hose! 

Visitors also had the opportunity to meet local firefighters, police officers and mountain rescue volunteers, as well as learn more about the vital work that they do. 

The fabulous Glossop Old Band played some festive tunes to keep folk entertained, while there were plenty of stalls selling treats, crafts, refreshments and more. 

The final amount raised isn't yet known but proceeds from the event will go to The Fire Fighters Charity - which supports the everyday heroes of the fire community across the UK, whether they are injured, ill or in need of psychological support. 

We were in attendance and you can browse through our photo album here...
