A BOLTON MP has praised the hard work and enthusiasm of firefighters who held an open day at their station.
Bolton South East MP Brian Iddon joined in the fun at Farnworth fire station when they held an action packed open day.
The event at the Brackley Street station raised £2,000 for the Fire Service's Benevolent Fund and attracted thousand of visitors.
Mr Iddon said: "The fact that people were queuing up even before the gates had opened and that the yard was full until closing time suggests that the people of Farnworth and district are keen to support open days."
