Hello everyone my name's Annabelle, i'm 15 years old and live in Hampshire. I'm currently fundraising to help cover the costs of an incredible opportunity with the Fire Angels Leadership Foundation Programme. Fire Angels aims to empower young people by offering them a chance to take part in unique training, mentorship and role modelling. The programme was created by Fire fighters Rebecca and Georgina after they completed a pioneering expedition skiing to the south pole unsupported and unguided.

In February 2026 i'll be travelling to Sweden with the Fire Angels for a life changing trip that will push me out of my comfort zone, give me the chance to spend time with inspirational people, challenge me in new ways and give me experiences and skills i will carry with me forever .... i'm so excited!

In January 2024 I joined Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire Cadets, which quickly became the highlight of my week. Cadets have inspired me to hopefully join the fire service in the future and this trip gives me the chance to get closer to that dream.

Every donation makes a big difference and will bring me and future fire cadets a step closer to this amazing opportunity. All funds will be going to the fire angels.

Thank you for your support.
