REGARDING the firefighter from Chorley injured in an arson attack getting a £2.2m pay-out – we owe a huge debt of gratitude to these heroes who go to work each day and put their lives on the line for the rest of us.

I hope the money goes some way to helping him to lead as normal a life as possible.

Let us not forget that no amount of money can ever be enough in some cases. Let’s also remember with respect the Manchester firefighter, Stephen Hunt, who lost his life in similar circumstances at the weekend.
