Saturday 7 August 2010 - Road Safety Event at Winwick Road Fire Station
The Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service held an RTC Extrication Challenge, where fire crews from different CFRS stations competed to rescue a casualty from a crash-damaged car. There were also a number of both fun and educational activities for visitors. Warrington Advanced Motorists set up a publicity stand at the caravan and received a visit from someone who looked familiar but wouldn't speak to anyone!
