Kent Firefighting Museum

The Kent Firefighting Museum has been established as a voluntary organisation started by a group of forward thinking individuals passionate about our Kentish firefighting heritage. The group, now established as TRUSTEES, is committed to ensure that all this is preserved and documented as a legacy for the future. The Charity Commission officialy confirmed on June 27, 2014, that Kent Firefighting Museum is a registered charity: Number 1157631, as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) status to provide and deliver the Aims of the Museum.

Now that the Registered Charity status is in the process to sign the transfer of all items over to the museum.

THE MUSEUM IS NOW OFFICIALLY OPEN TO THE PUBLIC… We were delighted that the Rt. Hon. the Baroness Blackstone, Patron opened the Museum. As an aside, Baroness Blackstone’s father, Geoffrey Vaughan Blackstone (formerly Chief Fire Officer of Hertfordshire FB) was the author of the History of the British Fire Service. This connection continues the family connection with our fine heritage.
