🚒 Congratulations Nick Maher — 28 Years of Service!

After an incredible 28 years, Nick Maher Nick Maher has hung up his helmet at Heathfield Community Fire Station, having joined East Sussex Fire and Rescue back in 1998.

Nick has been a cornerstone of the Heathfield community, with the dedication and professionalism that defines the very best of the blue light services.
