In the run up to the event, the volunteer fire service are collecting teddy bears and other Christmas gifts.

These gifts will then be donated by the service, along with the Freewheel Cruiser Riders Association, to local children’s wards to spread holiday cheer where it’s needed most.

To donate, either message the Peterborough Volunteer Fire Brigade on Facebook or visit the fire station on Bourges Boulevard on Tuesday drill nights from 6pm.
