For over 50 years, Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service have been fund raising every December with Rudolph, and have raised more than £280,000 in that time for local childrens charities.

Many thanks to everyone who supported the Rudolph fund in 2009,
Despite only "static" displays being held, a fantastic amount of £10,000 was raised.
The beneficiaries this year include Mablethorpe Holiday Centre, Friends of Sycamore Court, Leicester Hospitals Charity- Breast Care Unit, Leicester Downs Syndrome Group, Imperial Avenue Infant School Reality, Mosaic Disability Services and Wishes For Kids.
