Josephine Reynolds

Fabulous and funny! Breaking Free with Rania was liberating, it turns out I'm an accidental feminist. Why not take a listen.

It's always a question on everyone's minds! Have things changed in all of the years since I was a firefighter ?

Thank you Westland Horticulture, for featuring me as a firefighter / gardener in this tongue-in-cheek ad. Enjoy!

It was the first time I had met Alice,a serving firefighter. This LADbible show format has us asking each other questions that we hadn’t seen before picked up from the table between us. We then compared our experiences in our jobs, generations apart. Enjoy!

An early interview in 2017 with BBC World News. I was invited to their studio to talk live about Fire Woman being published. The piece included archive press photos from jobs, and their footage of me passing my HGV test to drive the fire engine.

BBC World 100 Years Campaign. I was interviewed as part of the celebrations of women being given the vote in the UK.

I spent a month in Australia in 2019 at the invitation of Fire Rescue New South Wales. As part of my tour I chatted with the fire brigade there. This was at Melbourne Fire Brigade HQ with Steve O'Malley.

"Hey Jo, I'd just thought I'd say that I've just finished your book. What an adventure you've had! The book is brilliant. I don't often get engrossed in books but I did with your one. You have literally seen it all. Did you ever get back into the service?"

"Make you feel like you really got to know Jo over the course of the book. Interesting insight into the fire service. One of the best biography I have ever read"

"Josephine paved the way for females in the fire service and should be justly proud of her achievements. This book is an excellent record of her fire service adventure and is a first-class read.”
