DELABOLE Firefighters held a charity car wash on Tuesday, September 3, at Delabole Fire Station, raising around £100 with 20 cars — but had to attend two calls during the evening.

Before the event started, at around 4pm, crews attended a small fire involving a combine harvester at Tregardock, and later during the event, at around 7.20pm, crews extinguished a fire involving a round baler, at Tresparrett, which was totally destroyed by fire.
