The Safer Communities Action Group was invited to attend Child Safety Day held at Llanelli Leisure Centre and so Joe and Karen, along with Amy from Felinfoel C1st duly went along with display boards and a mission - to spread the message and work of Safer Communities!
We took along our new high vis vests, walking rings and children's safety in the home book. The display boards looked fab and we kitted the tables out with colouring pictures and pencils.
The event was put on to promote children's safety , and in the car park, free safety checks were given to children's car seats with advice and information on updating your car seat if needed. For every car seat checked, a voucher could be exchanged for a free swim in the leisure centre.
In the hall there was plenty to see with displays from the Children's Partnership, Kerbcraft and Gary Gosafe, the police, Fire Brigade, Eco babies and much more.
And for the little people, (big dissapointment for me, apparently I'm much older than 8 yrs!) there was a bouncy castle. Making an appearance was Gary Gosafe himself, accompanied by Fireman Sam and Sali Mali.
The event was a great success and we came away forging new relationships with new organisations. Looking forward to the next event!
