The guest speaker at our meeting this month was Hilary Green. When she’s not busy producing the Club’s posters at her Print and Stationery shop in Cupar, Hilary has a second career as a retained firefighter with Scottish Fire & Rescue based at Cupar Fire Station. Hilary gave us a fascinating insight into the role of a firefighter, which can involve anything from rescuing a dog in a drain to dealing with a major fire incident.One important aspect of the work of the firefighter is fire prevention and Hilary gave us plenty of useful fire safety tips which we’ll be able to put into practice in our workshops or at home. For anyone who didn’t manage to come along to the meeting, The Scottish Fire & Rescue Service have a lot of useful information on their website which can be found by following the link below. They also offer a free home safety visit which can be arranged by phoning 0800 0731 999, by contacting your local fire station, or by booking online at http://www.firescotland.gov.uk/your-safety.aspx Once again, we’d like to pass on our thanks to Hilary for her entertaining talk and we hope to welcome her and her colleagues to the rally in June with one of their fire engines!
