FIRE AID’s roots in Kent have helped build strong and lasting relationships between firefighters in Kent and their counterparts in Ukraine. What began through personal connections between fire and rescue professionals has grown into a wider partnership, responding to the increasing needs of communities affected by the war.

FIRE AID works in partnership with Kent With Ukraine, sharing warehouse facilities and coordinating the collection and distribution of essential fire and rescue equipment. Through this partnership, FIRE AID supports Chernihiv Oblast, a region with a direct partnership with Kent, helping strengthen local fire and rescue services and ensuring they have access to the equipment they need to protect their communities.
