A great event at the South & City College, Ward End was delighted to interact with fresh faces that stepped through their doors and showcase our VR rtc footage. It was a real eye opener for most. Information was absorbed like a sponge! Thanks all involved last week. ππ½ππ½ππ½

π₯ If you've built your own bonfire, it could be damp and tricky to light.
β DON'T use a flammable liquid, such as petrol, to get it going or to keep it burning.
β
Make sure the fire's well away from houses, sheds, fences, trees and anything else that could catch fire.

π Sparklers aren't toys. They can generate heat levels comparable to a welding torch.
Don't let under-5s use them.
Always supervise children using sparklers.
Avoid wearing loose clothing when using, or near, sparklers or fireworks.

Quitting isn't easy. But there's lots of health benefits and smoking at home does put you at higher risk of accidental fires.
If you feel like now is the time, download the app or reach out to your local NHS service at: nhs.uk/better-health/quit-smβ¦

Fire door safety week!!!
Are your fire doors in good repair and close correctly? π€
Fire doors are designed to resist the spread of fire, normally a minimum of 30mins. This allows time for people to leave the building via an escape route.
