Overview

Gambling Connection: FIRE FIGHTERS CHARITY holds a UKGC operator licence, first granted on 3 August 2014, used to run fundraising lotteries in support of fire service personnel and their families. It isn't a commercial gambling business.

FIRE FIGHTERS CHARITY is a private company limited by guarantee, a structure common among registered UK charities. It was incorporated on 8 July 2002 and has remained continuously active since. The company's SIC code falls under personal service activities rather than gambling, reflecting its nature as a charity rather than a commercial betting operation.

It's been in good standing for more than 23 years, and that longevity is reflected in its company score of 100 (A+). All indicators point to a well-run organisation: active status, no outstanding charges, and a large board made up predominantly of UK-resident members. The PSC register carries a formal exemption statement, which is standard for charities of this type.

The Gambling Commission licence it holds is used to run fundraising lotteries, not commercial gambling products. That's the sole basis for its inclusion in this database.

Governance

The company currently has 14 directors on its board, 13 of whom are UK-resident. Board membership has turned over regularly since incorporation in 2002, which is typical for a charity of this size. There are no persons with significant control listed. Instead, the PSC register holds a formal exemption statement recorded on 8 July 2016, consistent with charitable governance structures where no single individual or entity exercises significant control.
