District Administrator thanks reserves: Christmas Eve full of dedication in Bad Hersfeld!

On Christmas Eve, December 24, 2024, District Administrator Torsten Warnecke visited the rescuers and helpers with mayors, who are working over the holidays. While many citizens did the last purchases and prepared for the festival, the emergency services of the emergency services, the police and fire brigade were already required. At the Bad Hersfeld police station, the officers had to accept numerous emergency calls, including reports on a serious motorcycle accident, as station manager Thomas Jungk confirmed. The more than 13 stations in Rotenburg, Bad Hersfeld and Niederaula were visited by Warnecke to thank the helpers and point out the importance of their work, reports the hna .

In addition to the tour, a special Christmas party for those in need in the Bad Hersfeld town hall was also organized. Processin Sabine Kropf-Brandau reported 130 registrations, almost twice as many as in the previous year. Many volunteers took part in this celebration who wanted to offer people without a place to stay or with little incomes. For this purpose, warm dishes and gifts were distributed, a feeling of the community that is particularly important during these holidays, the Hersfelder Zeitung Fest.

The district council's Christmas evening visits have been a tradition for years that recognizes the recognition of the special achievements of the emergency services. In addition to small gifts such as honey and chocolate, the tour also served to emphasize the good cooperation during the year. While some of them will be released into the holidays after the service, the majority of the emergency services remain ready to help over Christmas if there is a need.
