Well, Al and I have just completed two more Learn and Live presentations at Lowestoft College – one to catering students and the other to the Uniformed Services course.
And it seems that each time we get back from the College an e-mail has arrived to book in more sessions. So, it's great to see some of the other guys coming along to see the presentations with a view to them coming onboard – Ray Long, Conrad Peck and Steve Mullen have been to this weeks sessions.
Bookings are now coming in from various high schools in Waveney, so the extra bodies will help to spread the load. And to be honest, you don't want to do too many of these Learn and Live presentations in a short space of time. The reason is you are relating your own experiences so, in some respects, it's just like attending an RTC (Road Traffic Collision).
I notice that Norfolk had some great coverage in the Eastern Daily Press for the launch of their equivalent to Learn and Live. [Sentence deleted…]. Time for us to sing our own praises – no one else will do it. Let's get the local press and radio involved, show the people of Waveney how proactive the Fire Service is in trying to reduce the level of fatalities and serious injuries on Suffolk's roads…
Off the soap box and time for tea before heading back to the station for drill night.
