Our drill night (weekly training time) was put to good use tonight for a practical RTC drill. This was to help our firefighters in development in getting signed off on key parts of their development programme. We flipped the micra on its side and treated it as a realistic incident, training like this keeps us on our toes ready for when we are needed for real. We are always on the look out for new recruits so if this sounds your sort of thing, pop down to see us on a Wednesday night between 1830-2100 and we would be happy to have a chat about our role! πŸš’πŸš’πŸ”₯πŸ”₯
