Forces Equine members rally round FE member after fire engulfs their yard


We are not just an organisation, we are a community.

"Forces Equine members rally around PC Helen du Heaume after a devastating fire engulfed her yard, destroying everything in its path. Thankfully, no people, horses, or other animals were harmed."

Report by Gloucestershire Live..

"A fire has ripped through stables, 200 bales of hay, a shipping container and horse box. The inferno could be seen from miles away as crews battled for hours to extinguish the fire.

The Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service was alerted to the fire in Heathfield, in Alkington, near Berkeley, at 11.15pm yesterday evening (July 26). Four fire engines and crews were deployed to the scene where they remained until around 3.30am this morning.

A spokesman for the Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Crews were called to reports of a barn fire at 11.15pm, in Heathfield, in Alkington."

Members rallied round to arrange supplies, funding and support to fellow member Helen and this support is on going.

We will be organising a route to collect items to deliver to Helen this Thursday. If you can help, please feel free to contact us.
