Hutch,
Contact the Fire & Rescue Service in the area where you live or study, I am sure they will give you any information you require.
Most Brigades also have websites that contain recruitment info.
Retirement age 55. Salary for a fire-fighter about £25000 I think.
Good Luck.

Hutch

The ODPM's website for Fire & Rescue Services is at :
http://www.odpm.gov.uk/stellent/groups/odpm_fire/documents/divisionhomepage/039207.hcsp

There's loads of info there.

Colin,
'Fraid so, It is a while since I was on a fireman's pay!
I did think about suggesting young Hutch went on the Bruvvers site to get pay details but that may have been a bit scary for him.
Oops I may be lowering the tone with ribald comments, better go!
