If you are a new or prospective member, we would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the LFB Welfare Fund.

The London Fire Brigade Welfare Fund is a stand alone membership organisation set up to encourage & serve the sports, social & recreational interests of its members.

Examples of some services we provide are the various amenities that we grant for members' use at Brigade stations and offices, such as gym and entertainment equipment.  We also offer a range of sporting and leisure trips and events, for instance London's Fittest Fire-fighter or the Tunnel to Towers Trip to New York in September. Theatre tickets are available at subsidised prices for a number of popular shows and musicals and the Fund operates a members' monthly lottery with a first prize of £10,000 and a second prize of £5,000 with twenty runner-up prizes.

Other advantages of being a Welfare Fund member include the great value Fire Brigade related merchandise which members can purchase by completing an order form found in the magazine and on the website or contacting us by telephone. A large range of LFB personalised merchandise is sold in our shop such as rugby shirts, polo shirts and T-shirts. Members are also able to make use of the facilities at our social club at Edmonton.

In addition to these services, within the LFB Welfare Fund membership subscription is a Death Benefit Scheme for those members under the age of 65. The benefit is paid out to the beneficiary nominated by the deceased member or if there is no specified beneficiary, to their next of kin providing, of course, that exclusions do not apply.
