As Christmas 2019 draws to an end, one story stuck out to our editorial team that sums up the kindness and selfless attitude of the emergency services. 

Harrogate Fire Station (North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service) decided to open its doors to anyone in their local community who was on their own on Christmas Day. 

The duty crew who covered the stations emergency response for Christmas Day decided to put on a slap-up meal (at their own expense) at the station and invited anyone to come along who might be feeling lonely.

They also invited anyone to the station who could not afford to cook their own Christmas dinner this year, to also join them for their Christmas lunch. 

A post shared on their Facebook page said:

“Table set.. music playing, food cooking, presents wrapped, tree decorated, flowers arranged…

“I think we are ready.

“So come on Harrogate, don’t be shy, if you’re on your own, old, young, single, married, can’t afford a Christmas dinner, can’t cook a Christmas dinner, got the children, haven’t got the children.. there’s no excuse.. come down and join us for Christmas..”

One follower said:

“I’ve been connected to you guys in my life you are the salt of the earth. the best .all together as one.

“Well done guys you are doing an amazing thing for people of Harrogate from Tom Middleton. 

“Merry Xmas to all xxx’.

Before you go...

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories & videos which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services & NHS by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services & NHS which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of you, our readers.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
