7. Office Hours?
The office hours for the Trading Team are Monday to Friday 0900 - 1700
8. Do you have a Product Catalogue?
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic over the past few years we have been unable to arrange photoshoots for our products and therefore we do not have a current catalogue available. Our online shop is the best place to see what we have to offer as this is regularly updated.
9. Can I purchase a Helping Hoodie if I am do not work for the FRS?
Unfortunately these products are only available to be purchased by currently serving FRS personal or retired FRS personal and a password will be required to place the order. (This password can be obtained form the your FRS internal communications team) We do however still sell our Firefighters Charity hoodies which are available for all general public to purchase also.
10. I can't see my FRS as an option for the Helping hoodies?
This will mean that we have not yet had permission from your Brigade to use your FRS badge on the hoodies. The best way to help us speed this up is drop your internal communications team an email asking for them to grant the Charity permission to do so as we would be happy to provide badged hoodies to all of our UK based FRS.
