On behalf of the organising team I can say that we entirely understand that some people cannot be parted from their pets even for a few days.
Unfortunately we have no control over the fact that the Fire Service College trains dogs for a variety of extremely sensitive tasks and they will not allow other dogs/pets on site - except for helper/guide dogs where necessary.
For those who cannot or will not be able to organise kennels/friends etc to look after their pets, we are sorry but we cannot bend the rules and must very regretably accept that you will have to miss this once in a lifetime event.
This restriction has been very clearly flagged on the event website and in communications since we first started publicising the Centenary Event.
