FBU General Secretary Steve Wright addresses a crowd from a Fire Appliance

The FBU is committed to campaigning for the best deal for our members in the workplace and beyond. Getting our message across to decision-makers  is crucial in our efforts, alongside other unions, for improved health and safety legislation, trade union and employment rights.

Our campaign fire engine travels around the country attending demonstrations, rallies and events on issues ranging from local fire service cuts to climate change. With a platform and fully-functioning PA sound system, it is a fantastic tool for our members, and others in the Labour and trade union movement, to get their message across loud and clear to key stakeholders and the public.

If you are interested in booking the campaign fire engine for an event, please fill out and submit the form below and a member of the Communications team will get back to you. Please note that all requests must be agreed by the local FBU Regional Secretary and submitting the form does not guarantee use of the fire engine.
