London Fire Brigade: Inspiring young women to become firefighters

After a fire ripped through her father’s business, Chloe Cassar witnessed first-hand how she says firefighters battled to save what they could and dealt with a highly stressful situation so calmly and professionally.

That experience inspired Chloe to join the London Fire Brigade, one of a growing number of women firefighters. On top of her job, she’s also an accomplished weightlifter and competed at the British Championship in 2019, where she won bronze.
