Emergency services workshops for primary students

Primary school students from across the Island will take part in workshops with a number of emergency services next month.

The five day Crucial Crew event will be held in Douglas, and teach essential life skills ranging from, personal safety to road awareness and first aid. 

Sessions will be taught by services like the police, St John Ambulance and the fire and rescue service.

Organisers say the event will help youngsters feel more confident and prepared for the future before they head to secondary school.
