Keeping UK Fire Service Resources up and running unfortunately costs money. When the site first started, the costs involved with hosting and server maintenance were not as expensive as they are now. Suffice to say that the site has grown substantially over the years, and with that growth, has come an increase in the costs associated with maintaining and hosting the site. These costs have now elevated to a level where donations go a long way to keeping the site going.
