Book of Remembrance

The Firefighters Memorial Trust is pleased to relaunch it’s Book of Remembrance, in tribute to those members of the fire service who have died in the course of their duties, following a period of absence due to the original online hosting company ceasing trading.

Our new version of the book is still in the process of being built but that process has reached the point when we can once again remember and pay tribute to those we seek to honour.

Further work will in due course permit us to once again record those members of the Fire Service who died as a result of Military Service, dating back to the Second Boer War and those ‘Fire Guards’, and ‘Fire Watchers’ who died as a result of their duties during World War 2, in addition to our main listing of those members of the fire service who have died in the course of their duties.

A future project will be to provide a listing with images of any memorial, plaque or tablet around the UK, commemorating members of those who have died in the course of their duties, before the passage of time masks their existence. Such a project has never been attempted before.
